About this course

Overview and Outcomes.

Overview

This module covers the structures that organise a multi-agency emergency and the local authority's place within them. It explains strategic, tactical and operational command, the Strategic, Tactical and Recovery Co-ordinating Groups, what councils bring, and the discipline of the decision log. Storm Dennis in Rhondda Cynon Taf shows command and community working together, and the first hours of strategic leadership. This module looks at how organisations with different cultures, structures and language act as one response. It sets out the five JESIP principles, the METHANE incident message and the Joint Decision Model, and draws on Amy Edmondson's idea of teaming. The 2010 Chilean mine rescue, read through Rashid, Edmondson and Leonard's envisioning, enrolling and engaging, shows why interoperability is a relationship.

What you'll develop

In this Bitesize, you will develop the ability to:

  1. Distinguish strategic, tactical and operational command, and describe the roles of the Strategic, Tactical and Recovery Co-ordinating Groups.
  2. Set out what councils bring to an emergency and why co-ordination, not command, holds a multi-agency response together.
  3. Apply the discipline of the decision log and the five first-hours questions when acting as a strategic leader.
  4. Describe the five JESIP principles and use the METHANE format to structure an incident report.
  5. Apply the Joint Decision Model to reach shared decisions with partners from other organisations.
