PILOT PROJECT WEATHER EVENT STATUS
Based upon consultations between FEMA senior leadership, internal FEMA offices, and relevant external government, private, and stakeholder agencies/organizations, the specific weather event to “start the clock” regarding the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team’s beginning-to-end FEMA leadership and management concept has been identified.
The specific weather event based on current modeling data from the National Hurricane Center is a tropical depression that has formed off Africa’s west coast. This tropical depression is predicted to have an 85% probability of making landfall along the U.S. east coast with a minimum magnitude of Category 3 (i.e., devastating damage from wind speeds between 111 and 129 miles per hour [mph]). Landfall is currently predicted for the U.S. east coast from somewhere between the Norfolk, VA and Charleston, SC regional areas. However, with such an early projection, natural atmospheric conditions may lead to a different landfall and category strength event at the time of landfall. As of now, the weather event is being classified as a “tropical depression”; i.e., winds near the center of the depression constantly between 23-39 mph.
BACKGROUND
Recognizing that atmospheric changes may impact the latest Hurricane Center projections, FEMA senior leadership and relevant stakeholders have decided that the EMRAAS Pilot Project initiative use this specific tropical depression weather event — projected to become a Category 3 or higher hurricane to illustrate the pros and cons associated with a FEMA-centric pilot project team to lead and manage a whole community approach for an expected disastrous event.
At the latest FEMA leadership meeting, the initial discussions associated with the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team (based on the discussion above) focused on the first step of forming a “whole community” team of stakeholders deemed appropriate to be involved with a potential hurricane that is projected to impact the U.S. east coast between Norfolk, VA and Charleston, SC. Knowing that emergency management-related resources are limited due to other ongoing commitments, the discussion was varied in terms of which team members were most appropriate for the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team composition. Further, in terms of team membership, there was not a consensus regarding those stakeholders who should be considered “primary” (i.e., decision makers) as compared to “secondary” (i.e., support) team members.
As a result of this round-table discussion, the FEMA Administrator has tasked the OPPA Associate Administrator to have the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team provide a “refresher” point paper on public-private partnerships as they relate to emergency management. Also, having a projected landfall location, the FEMA Administrator requests that the point paper provide a proposed team membership with outlined roles and responsibilities as associated with this pilot project.
RAPID ACTION TASKER #1
Part 1: Request the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team to discuss the concept of “public-private partnerships” as they relate to “emergency management.” Who are some of the main players? What is a strength and a weakness of how the emergency management community currently handles public-private partnerships?
Part 2: Specific to the identified pilot weather event – i.e., a hurricane of Category 3 (or higher) potentially impacting the U.S. east coast between Norfolk VA and Charleston SC – provide a proposed team membership for the EMRAAS Pilot Project initiative in terms of which specific partners would you include as part of the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team at this time? What characteristic or trait within the EMRAAS Pilot Project Team membership would you emphasize to best ensure a meaningful and productive partnership?

outcome in reasonable nursing programs and to recognize scholastically lacking understudies. Level of instructive fulfillment as estimated by end of (GED) program, secondary everyday schedule courses were not viewed as a helpful indicator of progress in LPN programs. The capacity of orientation to anticipate achievement was restricted. Albeit the review viewed age as connected with section or disappointment of the LPN Exit Competency Test, generally speaking age was not a decent indicator of outcome in LPN programs. Race likewise was not an indicator of progress. Trial of Adult Basic Education (TABE) perusing scores represented the biggest level of change in every one of the measure factors in both single and various relapse examination. The R was 0.0740 for the fluctuation in section or disappointment of the LPN Assessment Test (AT) represented by TABE understanding scores. TABE science scores represented just a little percent of the fluctuation (7T = 0.0151). Quick’s (1989) investigation of 1,254 useful nursing understudies in 12 postsecondary schools in Georgia exhibited no huge distinction between paces of program culmination for either secondary school graduates or GED beneficiaries. Nonetheless, GED beneficiaries had fundamentally higher combined grade point midpoints when contrasted with secondary school graduates. Though age displayed no huge relationship to the presentation as far as GPA and NCLEX results, race was viewed as a calculate that African American understudies would in general have lower section rates in contrast with the exhibition of Caucasian understudies on the NCLEX-PN. Achievement is prevalently characterized in the functional nursing research writing as finishing on the NCLEX-PN assessment. Thompson (1989) viewed as SAT verbal, race, and progress in years to be indicators of achievement for the down to earth nursing licensure assessment. A portion of these discoveries were disconnected to results revealed in later examinations. The example comprised of 248 pragmatic nursing understudies across the province of Georgia who graduated in 1987 and composed the authorizing assessment. Autonomous factors included Test of Adult Basic Education scores; three sub-test scores of the Career Planning Program Test including perusing, mathematical abilities, language abilities, SAT, ACT, secondary school grade point normal, age, and race. Sub-scores of every confirmation test were utilized as indicator factors in stepwise numerous relapse examinations and investigation of fluctuation was utilized to dissect the impact old enough on licensure achievement or disappointment. The mean age for the subjects who bombed the nursing assessment was 24.55, while the mean age for the subjects who breezed through the assessment was 27.82. Caucasians were bound to have passing scores when contrasted with minorities, and the specialist likewise found a huge, positive connection between SAT verbal scores and nursing licensure scores as well as between Career Program Reading Test scores and nursing licensure scores. Chi-square examination tracked down rural projects to have fundamentally better section rates when contrasted with the entry paces of projects situated in metropolitan or rustic regions. Chosen factors that could influence whittling down in pragmatic nursing projects and accomplishment on the NCLEX-PN in Alabama were analyzed. Factors found to have a relationship to program result were age and race. The most youthful age gatherings (17 – 24) were found to have a lower achievement rate in LPN programs (Parrish, 1994).
The Development of Nurses in Missouri Nursing advancement and examination in Missouri has been significant as the more seasoned grown-up populace rate kept on expanding in Missouri proportionate to the remainder of the state populace. The nursing schools in Missouri started to address wellbeing necessities and worries of more seasoned grown-ups from an imaginative and cooperative point of view which incorporated the college PC designing and wellbeing informatics programs (Beeman, 2001). The Aging in Place project was imagined by the school of nursing staff in 1996. It created to include Senior Care, a nursing practice zeroed in on health; and TigerPlace, a private climate of imaginative plan where pets were invited and that elaborate the school of veterinary medication. Among the subjects talked about were all encompassing methodologies, diabetes, diseases, and advances across care settings, drug treatment, fall avoidance, constant psychological instability, and mental disability. Proceeding with training units were granted to medical attendants, nursing home executives, and social laborers who went to the gathering (Lockie, 2000). Confirmations Criteria
Confirmations models utilized for passage into nursing programs shift among programs. In an assessment of junior colleges confirmations rules, researchers have found an extensive variety of required pre-essential affirmations courses, units, and different measures among programs (Ali, 2008). The writing uncovered the consideration of different scholastic affirmations standards, including GPA, SAT, ACT, NLN, Preadmissions Test, Nurse Entrance Test (NET), and the Written Proficiency Examination (WPE), TEAS. Late worries in regards to grade expansion, and the prescient worth of GPA, has brought about the more regular consideration of state administered tests as a component of the confirmations models in recognizing understudies who are probably
