## Introduction

Chapter 6 lists the 12 actions that Jamiyah Home for the Aged (JHA) takes after an intruder attack. This chapter breaks down each action in detail so every owner knows why it matters, what steps to take, and what to avoid.

The action numbers are the same, from A-01 to A-12. All roles, thresholds, time targets, and contacts in this chapter are illustrative and must be validated by JHA before the playbook is adopted.

## How to use this chapter

Each action has a heading, a line giving the owner, time target and output, a short explanation, numbered steps and a note on what to watch out for. Recovery takes weeks or months, so the Crisis Coordinator reviews progress at each Crisis Management Team (CMT) meeting and records it in the lessons register.

The two key considerations from Chapter 1 still apply. Recovery protects the wellbeing of all persons, and the Home avoids language or actions that could inflame tension with anyone involved in the incident.

## Recovery at a glance

Table CMP-AD1 groups the actions into four workstreams, so the Crisis Management Team Leader can see who is doing what.

**Table CMP-AD1: After Crisis actions by workstream**

| **Workstream** | **Actions** | **Lead roles** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Handover and care of people** | **A-01, A-02, A-06** | **Crisis Management Team Leader, Resident Care Lead, HR and Staff Welfare Lead** |
| **Premises, finance and compliance** | **A-03, A-04, A-07** | **Facilities and IT Lead, Legal and Compliance Lead, Finance and Administration Lead** |
| **Communications** | **A-05** | **Communications Lead** |
| **Learning and improvement** | **A-08, A-09, A-10, A-11, A-12** | **Crisis Coordinator, Security and Safety Lead, Deputy Crisis Management Team Leader, Crisis Management Team Leader** |

## Detailed actions

### A-01: Confirm stand-down and secure the handover

**Owner:** Crisis Management Team Leader. **Time target:** Within 24 hours of stand-down. **Output:** Handover note and recovery action list.

The end of the emergency is the start of recovery. A clear handover prevents tasks from falling between the cracks.

1. Confirm with the Police, Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) and the Managing Agent that the emergency is over.
2. Convert open items from the decision log into a recovery action list with owners.
3. Thank responders and staff, and set a date for the first recovery meeting.

*Watch out for:* Letting the CMT drift away before open items have owners.

### A-02: Care for residents and families

**Owner:** Resident Care Lead. **Time target:** Daily for 14 days, then as needed. **Output:** Individual wellbeing checks and family contact log.

Shock may appear days later, particularly in frail or cognitively impaired residents. Families need honest information and reassurance.

1. Check each resident for signs of fear, withdrawal, poor sleep or change in behaviour, and involve their doctor if needed.
2. Keep routines familiar and calm, and give family members a named contact.
3. Arrange visits or support from faith and community volunteers where residents want it.

*Watch out for:* Assuming residents who did not witness events are unaffected.

### A-03: Restore the premises and services safely

**Owner:** Facilities and IT Lead. **Time target:** Start within 48 hours of Police release. **Output:** Repair schedule and safety inspection sign-off.

Residents should return to a clean, safe and reassuring environment. Repairs also offer the chance to improve security.

1. Take back the premises from the Police only on written release, and record damage with photographs.
2. Repair and clean, replace damaged locks and cameras, and test alarms before reopening areas.
3. Remove visible traces of the incident sensitively, with consideration for residents and staff.

*Watch out for:* Cleaning before the Police release the scene, which may destroy evidence.

### A-04: Complete statutory and regulatory follow-up

**Owner:** Legal and Compliance Lead. **Time target:** As set by Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF); Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) within 3 calendar days if notifiable. **Output:** Written reports and filing record.

The Home has duties to the regulator and may have duties under data protection law. Accurate, timely reports protect trust.

1. Submit the written incident report to MSF in the form and time it requires.
2. Complete the data breach assessment and notify the PDPC and affected individuals if required.
3. Support the Police, the coroner and any inquiry, and track every request.

*Watch out for:* Treating the first phone call to MSF as the full report.

### A-05: Rebuild trust through communications

**Owner:** Communications Lead. **Time target:** Within 7 days, then monthly for 3 months. **Output:** Follow-up messages and community engagement log.

Families, supporters and neighbours need to know the Home is safe and learning. Honest follow-up rebuilds confidence.

1. Send a clear update to families and the Managing Agent on what happened, what is being done and what has changed.
2. Answer media questions through the spokesperson and correct any false reports.
3. Thank the community for support, and avoid language that glorifies or sensationalises the attacker.

*Watch out for:* Going silent after the news cycle moves on.

### A-06: Support staff recovery and return to work

**Owner:** HR and Staff Welfare Lead. **Time target:** Within 7 days, then reviewed monthly. **Output:** Counselling and return-to-work records.

Staff are the Home's most important resource. Recovery needs time, structured support and fairness.

1. Offer individual and group counselling and watch for burnout and trauma.
2. Agree flexible duties and leave for those affected.
3. Recognise staff conduct, and make it clear that raising safety concerns is encouraged.

*Watch out for:* Praise without practical support.

### A-07: Recover financially and manage insurance

**Owner:** Finance and Administration Lead. **Time target:** Notify insurer within 7 days; claims within 30 days. **Output:** Claims file and cost summary.

Repair costs, overtime, counselling, and lost income add up quickly. Records started early support claims.

1. Notify insurers and collect quotations and receipts.
2. Track emergency spending against the limit set in B-12.
3. Report the full cost to the Managing Agent.

*Watch out for:* Failing to keep receipts during the response.

### A-08: Hold a hot debrief and a formal review

**Owner:** Crisis Coordinator. **Time target:** Hot debrief within 72 hours; review within 30 days. **Output:** Debrief notes and post-incident review report.

Facts and feelings are fresh in the first days. A structured review turns experience into learning without blame.

1. Hold a hot debrief of each shift and the CMT, with a neutral facilitator.
2. Build the timeline from the decision log, closed-circuit television (CCTV) and statements, and compare it with the plan.
3. Write the review report in a blame-free way, and share it with the Managing Agent.

*Watch out for:* Using the review to find someone to blame.

### A-09: Investigate causes and warning signs

**Owner:** Security and Safety Lead. **Time target:** Within 30 days. **Output:** Root-cause analysis and motivation assessment.

Understanding how the person came in, why they did it and whether there were earlier signs shows where to strengthen defences.

1. Work with the Police on what can be shared about the person and their motivation.
2. Check access, visitor, complaint and staff records for earlier signs, within data protection limits.
3. Identify control gaps and rank them by risk.

*Watch out for:* Assuming the motive and fixing only the wrong problem.

### A-10: Record lessons and corrective actions

**Owner:** Crisis Coordinator. **Time target:** Within 30 days. **Output:** Lessons-learned register.

A lesson not written down is a lesson lost. A register gives each fix an owner, a date and a status.

1. Log each lesson with its source, the action needed, the owner and the date.
2. Review the register monthly with the Crisis Management Team Leader.
3. Close actions only when evidence of completion is attached.

*Watch out for:* A long list with no owners.

### A-11: Update the plan, controls and training

**Owner:** Deputy Crisis Management Team Leader. **Time target:** Within 60 days. **Output:** Revised playbook and training plan.

The playbook must reflect what was learned. Updates should be reflected in Chapters 2 to 7 and communicated to everyone.

1. Amend roles, protocols and contacts in the playbook and issue a new version.
2. Update training, drills and staff pocket cards.
3. Brief all shifts and the Managing Agent on what has changed.

*Watch out for:* Filing the review and not changing the plan.

### A-12: Measure effectiveness and re-embed readiness

**Owner:** Crisis Management Team Leader. **Time target:** Within 90 days, then yearly. **Output:** Effectiveness report and next-cycle exercise schedule.

Measures show whether the Home is more ready than before. The cycle then returns to the Before Crisis actions.

1. Report the measures in Table CMP-A3 to the Managing Agent.
2. Schedule the next drill and readiness review.
3. Return to Chapter 2 and confirm each Before Crisis action is current.

*Watch out for:* Measuring activity (number of drills) rather than results.

## The first 90 days at a glance

Table CMP-AD2 shows how the actions fall across the first 90 days, so that the Crisis Management Team Leader can check progress at each recovery meeting.

**Table CMP-AD2: Recovery timeline across the first 90 days**

| **Period** | **Actions due** | **Focus** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Days 0 to 3** | **A-01, A-02, A-03 started, A-08 hot debrief** | **Handover, resident care, safe premises, first debrief** |
| **Days 4 to 7** | **A-04 reports, A-05 first update, A-06 counselling, A-07 insurer notice** | **Duties, communication, staff support and insurance** |
| **Days 8 to 30** | **A-08 review, A-09 root cause, A-10 register** | **Understanding what happened and why** |
| **Days 31 to 60** | **A-11 plan and training updates** | **Putting the lessons into practice** |
| **Days 61 to 90** | **A-12 effectiveness report and next drill** | **Proving readiness and closing the cycle** |

Some actions, such as resident wellbeing checks and staff counselling, continue beyond 90 days for as long as people need them.

## Pitfalls that cut across the actions

- **Moving on too fast.** Pressure to return to normal can leave people unsupported.
- **Blame.** A review that looks for a culprit teaches people to hide mistakes.
- **Loose ends.** Every action needs an owner, a date and evidence of completion.
- **Silence.** Families and staff who hear nothing assume the worst.

## Returning to the Before Crisis steps

The final action, A-12, closes the cycle. The Crisis Coordinator takes the lessons register to Chapter 2, checks each Before Crisis action in Table CMP-B5 against what was learned, and adds or changes actions as needed. Chapter 3 is then updated so that its steps match.

This loop is what separates a plan on a shelf from a living plan. After each drill or incident, the Home asks three questions: what worked, what did not, and what will we change before next time?

## Care for the people who did the work

Those who led the response, such as the Crisis Management Team Leader, the Crisis Coordinator and the nurses who stayed with residents, may carry heavy stress for a long time. Their recovery matters as much as anyone's. The HR and Staff Welfare Lead ensures they too are offered support, and that the Managing Agent recognises their contribution.

## Conclusion

The 12 After Crisis actions help the Home to recover with care and to learn without blame. They look after residents and staff, repair the premises, meet legal duties, rebuild trust and update the playbook.

With Chapter 7, the playbook is complete. The seven chapters form a cycle of preparation, response and learning that JHA can keep refreshing as the Home, its residents and the threat change.
