What Is ICS?• The Incident Command System:
– Is a standardized, on-scene, all-hazard incident management concept.
– Allows its users to adopt an integrated organizational structure organizational structure
• Matching the complexities and demands of single or multiple incidents

What Is an Incident?
•An incident is:. . . an occurrence, either caused by human or natural phenomena, that natural phenomena, that requires response actions to prevent or minimize loss of life, or damage to property and/or the environment.
![Page 5: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Overall Priorities
• Incident objectives are established based on the following priorities:
• #1: Life Saving
• #2: Incident Stabilization• #3: Property Preservation
![Page 6: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Regulatory Agencies� Recognize in a catastrophic event life saving measu res
will be a priority.
� Regulatory standards still apply during emergency a nd disaster events:
– Division of Facility Services
– Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
– Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA)
– Fire Marshall Having Jurisdiction
– Environmental Protection Agency
– Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
– Medical and Nursing and Allied Health Practice Boards

Purpose of ICS• Using best practices, ICS ensures
– Safety of responders and others– Achievement of tactical objectives– Efficient use of resources– Efficient use of resources
![Page 8: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ICS Principles• Emergencies require certain tasks or
functions to be performed.• Every incident needs a person in charge.• No one should direct more than 7 others.• No one should report to more than 1
person.• If the number of reporting elements is not
within this range, expansion or consolidation of the ICS organization may be needed
![Page 9: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ICS Management: Span of Control• ICS span of control for any supervisor:
– Is between 3 and 7 subordinates– Optimally does not exceed 5 subordinates
![Page 10: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ICS Principles
Everyone should:• Know common terminology before an
emergency.• Make use of common terminology to refer • Make use of common terminology to refer
to the situation.• No codes should be used unless absolutely
necessary.• When codes are necessary, ensure the
staff know them in advance.

Why Plain English?
• EMT = Emergency Medical Treatment• EMT = Emergency Medical Technician • EMT = Emergency Management Team
What does EMT mean?
• EMT = Emergency Management Team • EMT = Eastern Mediterranean Time
(GMT+0200) • EMT = El Monte, CA (airport code) • EMT = Electron Microscope Tomography • EMT = Email Money Transfer

Practical Problems in Information Exchange
• You don’t have a way to receive information
• You don’t have a way to send information• You don’t have a way to send information• You don’t know to whom information
should be sent• You don’t know whether the information
you have is accurate• You can’t inventory/control/safeguard the
information you do have

![Page 14: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Common ICS Terminology• Organizational Functions:
– Operations, Intelligence, Logistics, and Finance.– Functions pre-designated and named for the ICS.
• Resources:– Refers to the combination of personnel and equipment – Refers to the combination of personnel and equipment
used in response and recovery.
• Facilities:– Common identifiers used for those facilities in and
around the incident area which will be used during the course of the incident. These facilities include the command center, staging areas, etc.

Communication
Systems will rapidly become overloaded and the ones you use on a daily basis will
FAIL!
![Page 17: Incident Command System (ICS) - North Carolina · 2010-05-20 · ICS Principles • Emergencies require certain tasks or functions to be performed. • Every incident needs a person](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042612/5f6c62ae3ce7e67d1c1083a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Integrated Communications
• Incident communications are facilitated through: – The development and use of a common
communications plan.
Before an incident, it is critical to develop an integrated voice and data communications system
(equipment, systems, and protocols).
communications plan.– The interoperability of communication
equipment, procedures, and systems.

Modular Organization• ICS's organizational structure is modular.• As the need arises, functional areas may be
developed. • Several branches may be established.• Structure based upon the needs of the incident.• One individual can simultaneously manage all
major functional areas in some cases. • If more areas require independent management,
someone must be responsible for that area.

• Command– Sets the objectives– Devises strategies and priorities– Maintains overall responsibility for managing the
incident
• The Incident Commander • The Incident Commander – Is the only position always filled in on an inciden t
regardless of its nature– May be able to accomplish all five management
functions alone on small scale incidents– On larger incidents the Incident Commander may
appoint other Staff personnel to assist as the situation and resources warrant
