What is Emergency Preparedness?
Emergency Preparedness, or Preparation, is a dynamic, ongoing process for organizations that dedicate themselves to readying the public and the private realm for any type of disaster. Emergencies can be natural or man-made and Preparedness is a continuous cycle of planning and improving, with intent to prevent, protect, respond to, and recover from these events.

Emergency Preparedness Planning
There are many protocols that apply in an emergency, which usually start with planning before an emergency occurs.
- The planning phase starts at preparedness, where the agencies decide on how
they will respond to a given incident or set of circumstances - Agencies then move to a response phase, where they execute their plans
- Recovery follows, and includes clean-up from the incident
- The final phase is mitigation, to ensure against recurrence
