Emergency
Preparedness
" We cannot stop natural disasters, but we can
arm ourselves with knowledge: so many lives
wouldn't have to be lost if there was enough disaster
preparedness. " Petra Nemcova, 2004 Thailand
Tsunami Survivor
It is critically important that foodservice
professionals and support staff prepare for disasters
to safeguard vulnerable patients/residents,
employees and visitors, and the facility during
emergencies.
According to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 2010-2019
was a landmark decade which saw a significant
number of billion-dollar events in the U.S.
*	 2017 was a record year in this decade with
FEMA (Federal Emergency Management
Agency) recognizing 137 separate disaster
declarations. Over 95.6 million people affected
and an additional 9,697 killed by these disasters
made them catastrophic in loss of lives and total
costs. Sixteen of these disasters cost $1 billion to
$3 billion, with a new record of $306 billion in
disaster losses.
*	 2018 had 124 major declared disasters, 14 of
which were over $1 billion in damage with a
total of $91 billion in disaster losses.
*	 2019 had 101 major declared disasters with 14
over $1 billion in damage with a total of $45
billion in losses.
