| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| IMS | Incident management system |
| The Ontario Incident Management System (IMS) is designed to | be a response system, but it can be used to manage all stages of an incident |
| IMS is created to | give communities and organizations a common framework to communicate, coordinate and collaborate during a incident response |
| IMS An approach to emergency management that would | permits ministries, communities, organizations, institutions, and industry to operate more cohesively. • IMS has broad applicability and makes emergency response more efficient |
| IMS provides guidance on all aspects of coordinating an incident response, including: | • Support to the site • Coordination of incident response efforts • Command of incident response efforts • Communication |
| IMS helps incident response organizations respond effectively and efficiently by | Providing common structures, systems and roles • Helping incident response organizations communicate clearly through the use of common terms and concepts • Creating a flexible framework that can adapt to any level or type of incident |
| IMS can be used | at the site of an incident, for a planned event, in an Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) or a designated location where incident coordination and support take place |
| core principles | communication, collaboration, coordination, flexibility |
| objectives | preservation of life, stabilize the incident, protect the environment, preserve public confidence |
| positive identification on Skeletal Remains | ▪ DNA ▪ Dental records ▪ X-ray record comparison of previous injury/surgery ▪ Tracking implants |
| positive identification on soft tissue | ▪ Fingerprints ▪ Marks, scars, tattoos ▪ Medical/cosmetic implants |
| Other Methods of identification | ▪Facial reconstruction ▪Clothing ▪Jewelry, personal affects |
| What MAY be learned from properly recovered human remains? | ■ Biological Profile ■ Trauma ■ Time Since Death ( Post Mortem Interval) ■ Medical Conditions ■ Positive Identification ■ Cause and/or Manner of Death |
| search patterns | spiral, grid, zone, strip/line |
| for each point | 1. Measure in (east) from datum point first 2. Measure up (north) from baseline second |
| Scattered Remains What to Look For | Skeletal & soft tissue on or just below the surface, Clothing, personal objects, weapons, Odour of decomposition and surface staining, Insect activity, Piled trash, loose brush, tree limbs and debris (green branches) Evidence of animal activity |
| police k9 responsibilities | ◼ TRACKING MISSING OR WANTED PERSONS ◼ AREA SEARCHES ◼ BUILDING SEARCHES ◼ APPREHENSION OF ARMED OR FLEEING SUSPECTS ◼ EVIDENCE OR PROPERTY SEARCHES |
| police k9 responsibilities | ◼ SEARCHES FOR ILLICIT DRUGS ◼ SEARCHES FOR EXPLOSIVES ◼ SEARCHES FOR FIREARMS / AMMUNITION ◼ SEARCH FOR HUMAN REMAINS ◼ SEARCH AND RESCUE (H.U.S.A.R.) |
| H.U.S.A.R. Dogs | (Heavy Urban Search and Rescue) |
| Human Decomposition | Approx. 4 minutes after death ◼ “autolysis” (self digestion) ◼ Cells deprived of O2, CO2 increases, pH decreases, waste accumulates, cells poisoned ◼ Cells dissolve from inside out, rupturing ◼ Visually apparent after several days ◼ Skin slippage |
| Human Decomposition | ◼ Body acclimatized (algor mortis) ◼ Blood settled, skin discolouration (livor mortis) ◼ Increased acidity (rigor mortis) |
| Human Decomposition | Tissues into gases and liquids (Putrefaction) ◼ Gases and fluids purge ◼ Increase in bacteria presence ◼ Insect activity highly increased ◼ Carnivore activity |
| Human Decomposition | ◼ Adipocere (warm, moist environment) ◼ Mummification (dry heat, low humidity, also extreme cold) |
| Search Challenges and Considerations | ◼ Weather ◼ Age ◼ Terrain ◼ Training Experience / Limitations ◼ Legality ◼ Hazards / Safety ◼ Predation ◼ Heaving (bone) intelligence |
| Environmental Challenges | ◼ Layers ◼ Topsoil (12-18”) vs. Subsoil ◼ Types (size of mineral particles) ◼ Texture / Porosity (sand, silt, clay) ◼ Consistency ◼ Microbial Concentration |
| How does a dog become a Police Service Dog? | ◼ Purchased from broker or breeder ◼ Tested for drive, temperament, health ◼ Basic training course (approx. 4 months) ◼ Certification / Testing ◼ Training, Training, Training! |
| An estimated.... and up to | 70% of adults have encountered a traumatic event at one point in their lives......20% of these people develop post-traumatic stress disorder |
| Emergency services personnel are | three times more likely to develop post- traumatic stress disorder than people in the community. In addition, other risk factors include depression and alcohol/substance abuse |
| A critical incident is | a severe event that can overwhelm a person’s ability to cope and disrupts normal functions |
| what is wellness | is the integration of body, mind, and spirit to produce a balanced lifestyle. It promotes a sense of becoming, changing, improving, and growing. Wellness is achieved by practicing good health habits and eliminating harmful ones |
| For emergency service providers, the top 10 causative factors for critical incident stress include | • line of duty deaths, • suicide of a colleague • serious work-related injuries, • multi-casualty incidents, • events that indicate a threat to workers, • death of a child patient, |
| For emergency service providers, the top 10 causative factors for critical incident stress include | • events that involve a victim that is known personally to the workers, • events with excessive media coverage, • prolonged events with a negative outcome • any overwhelming distressing event |
