This package includes two of the most recent Model Procedures Guides: Special Operations-Incidents Involving Hazardous Materials/WMD, Structural Collapse, Wildland, and Managing Large-Scale Incidents using NIMS-ICS 1st Edition (2008) and Incident Command System Model Procedures Guide for Incidents Involving Structural Fire Fighting, High Rise, Multi Casualty, Highway, and Managing Large-Scale Incidents Using NIMS-ICS 1st Edition (2008). The first manual includes basic information on NIMS ICS and then detailed information on how to apply it to structure fires, high-rise fires, major EMS incidents, roadway incidents, and large-scale incidents of other types. This includes concepts such as unified command, area command, joint operations centers (JOC), multi-agency coordination centers (MACC) and much more. This is the definitive text on the application of NIMS ICS to common types of emergency incidents. The second manual in the set is similar in design to the first book. The types of incident detailed in it include wildland fires, hazardous materials incidents, USAR/structural collapse incidents, and other types of large scale incidents. The primary advantage of using this publication as opposed to free publications from government sources is that the NIMSC publications go well beyond providing simple information on the ICS framework. These publications go the next step and apply ICS to specific types of incident. These examples can be used in training personnel to do the same: take ICS and efficiently apply it to the incident at hand. |
