Introduction

Jamiyah Home for the Aged (JHA) has set out its response to an intruder attack across seven chapters. The detail is useful for training and review, but in a crisis the Crisis Management Team (CMT) needs the actions on a single reference.

Before Crisis action list

Table CMP-AL1 lists the 13 actions that prepare the Home before any incident. They build the team, the controls, the messages and the resources, and they are tested through drills. Their time targets run from playbook approval, so the Crisis Management Team Leader can track readiness over the first year. Chapter 2 explains the actions, and Chapter 3 breaks each one down.

During Crisis action list

Table CMP-AL2 lists the 15 actions taken while an intruder is on the premises and in the hours and days that follow. The first four protect life and avoid provoking the intruder, and the time targets are in minutes for that reason. Many run in parallel, because different CMT members own different actions. Chapter 4 explains the actions and Chapter 5 breaks each one down.

They care for residents, families and staff, restore the premises, meet regulatory duties, rebuild trust and update the playbook. Their time targets run from stand-down, over the first 90 days and beyond. Chapter 6 explains the actions and Chapter 7 breaks each one down.

[CM] [E3] [Summing Up] Introduction to Crisis Management Playbook

Conclusion

The 40 actions form one cycle. Preparation makes the first minutes of a response calm and fast, the During Crisis actions protect life without provoking the intruder, and the After Crisis actions turn the experience into a stronger Home.

Use this list as a quick reference at drills and CMT meetings, and return to Chapters 3, 5 and 7 when an owner needs the purpose, steps and common mistakes for an action. After each drill or incident, update the lists so that they always match the playbook.
