members at the Oregon
Offi ce of Emergency
Management (OEM) and
produced in partnership
with the Oregon Health
Authority, offers dozens of
sessions -- from dispel ling
disaster myths to provid-
ing detailed and hands-on
discussions about incident
response protocols. Nearly
300 emergency manage-
ment leaders are expected
to attend.
As in years past, a wide
variety of experienced
subject matter experts will
present thoughtful and
useful information to help
attendees understand new
technology, collabora-
tive roles during county/
state/federal emergencies,
and look back at disas-
ters experienced in 2015.
The workshop will foster
dialogue and innovative
approaches for leaders on
how Oregon communities
will respond and recover
when an earthquake or
other catastrophic event
strikes.
Workshop class ses-
sions and panel discus-
sions focus on topics such
as disaster preparedness,
community resilience mod-
els and using social media
to get out public informa-
tion during emergencies.
New to the agenda this
year is a health-related
track with presentations
by members of the Oregon
Health Authority. Presenta-
tions include stress fi rst
aid, sheltering for people
with access and functional
needs, and a health per-
spective on active shooter
incidents.
"The 12 months since the
last workshop have been
busy; historic drought,
wildfi res, fl ooding and
landslides, and the tragic
violence at Umpqua Com-
munity College in Rose-
burg reminded us all how
quickly our communities
can change," said Andrew
Phelps, director, Oregon
Offi ce of Emergency Man-
agement.”
