Emergency Management scenarios?

Hi Matilda!

Could you give some examples of what you mean by Emergency Management so I can point you to some course examples in the community?

Matilda - here are some possibilities

Code Orange, Building Evacuation, Emergency Transport of Units to surrounding hospitals, data breach of medical records, active shooter, lockdowns for disasters, bacteria or virus outbreaks, external factors (explosions, bridge closure, water main/gas main breaks, etc.) that curtails 25-35% of hospitals employees from coming to work, hostage taking, electrical outage beyond the power backups, etc. regards.

Thank you David!

Hi Allison, 

I am trying to come up with an exercise or two within the course to challenge learners. I guess I am trying to find out how can I create a game within the course to have the learner know about code blue, code orange etc and release what's at stake if do not prepare and respond in a timely manner. I hope this makes sense...

Hi Matilda,

It sounds like you should create a scenario where you ask the learner to make decisions that rely on their knowledge of code blue, code orange, etc. Based on their decisions, they'll see what the consequences are.

Here are a couple examples of scenario-based courses to inspire you:

• Storyline: Hospital Comic Themed Example
• Storyline 360: Customer Service Scenario

Thank you so much Allison these are very helpful! :)

You're welcome! I'm so glad to hear that :)

You mentioned "Active Shooter" as a topic. One of the more compelling training videos I've seen is the FBI's "Run. Hide. Fight" video on what to do if you are caught in an active shooter situation: https://www.fbi.gov/about/partnerships/office-of-partner-engagement/active-shooter-resources/responding-to-an-active-shooter-crisis-situation

This is a great example of a memorable video because of how it engages your emotions. It is actually kind of scary and does a good job of helping you imagine yourself in the situation. That makes you pay attention in a way that a boring page-turner e-learning never can.

Cheers!

Thank you Ray!

Matilda,

Here are a few things I've done over time that falls into those categories. It might give you some ideas of how to approach it in Storyline.

Those are super cool examples, Richard! Thanks so much for sharing. Would you mind if we put them on the examples page?

No problem. Happy to share them.

Great, thank you :)
