Help ensure incident management systems and command safety structures are capable of providing maximum protection for emergency responders and others on the scene. It has never been more critical to reduce injuries and fatalities of those responding to emergencies. NFPA 1561, Standard on Emergency Services Incident Management System and Command Safety, offers broad criteria for the structure and procedures of these operations for optimal protection of personnel. The standard provides the framework for emergency service organizations implementing the National Incident Management System (NIMS). Provisions cover everything from highway accidents and emergency medical service (EMS) calls to structure and aircraft fires and active shooter scenes. NFPA 1561 applies to operations performed by an emergency services organization (ESO) at the scene of an incident and are relevant to both single agency systems and multi-agency EMS and larger situations. The 2020 edition offers the latest on managing emergency operations within an effective incident management system and performance criteria for components of a system of command that contributes toward safety and health objectives. NFPA 1516 is an indispensable resource for training to keep emergency response personnel better protected on the scene of an incident. The document is updated to reflect the most current information and best practices in incident managements. Notable changes include: New requirements for positional best colors added to the mandatory section of the standard to make incident management team members universally identifiable based on the color of vest they don for their assigned role Added language to prevent the ā€œincident within an incidentā€ practice of managing emergencies or ā€œMaydaysā€ at large-scale incidents to help ensure incident commanders stay in control of the entire incident and not become overly committed to the emergency by assigning a supervisor or rapid intervention group to the emergency Completely revised Annex C to reflect the latest ā€œPlanning Pā€ diagram and the best practices for creating an incident action plan Get the information necessary for improving the protection of the emergency service personnel the public relies on to respond to potentially dangerous incidents.
