This document is not a required form. The guide was created as a tool to help child care providers ensure compliance with sections DCF 202.08(4m), 250.06(3)(a), DCF 251.06 (3), and DCF 252.43(3). Providers are advised to seek out additional resources specific to their community and setting.\nRegulated child care providers are required to develop a written plan for taking appropriate action (hereafter referred to as a response) in the event of an emergency including a fire; a tornado; a flood; extreme outdoor heat or cold; a loss of building service, including no heat, water, electricity or telephone; human−caused events, such as threats to the building or its occupants; emergencies related to food; allergic reactions; lost or missing children; vehicle accidents; a provider’s family situation, such as medical emergency or illness; or other circumstances requiring immediate attention. The emergency plan must include continuity of operations, including steps child care programs take to demonstrate they are prepared to resume business, when possible, following an emergency.  Every section of the plan shall ensure that the needs of all children are met, including infants, toddlers, children with disabilities, and children with chronic medical conditions.\nThis document can be used in conjunction with or incorporated into the Family Child Care Policy Sample. It can also be used as a tool to help create policies in family and group child care centers.\nChild care center disaster plans should incorporate the four areas of disaster management:\nprevention/mitigation\npreparation\nresponse\nrecovery\nA child care provider’s timely response to such circumstances is essential to the plan's success. Preparation for emergencies is the key.\nThese instructions are general guidelines. Caregivers will be familiar with the program’s emergency plans before disaster situations occur.\nAll situations cannot be neatly defined into hard and fast guidelines. Individual judgment must be exercised in each situation. The center will make continuing and meaningful efforts to prevent incidents that lead to emergency situations.\nAbove all, caregivers will work to remain calm and use good judgment in the event of an emergency.\nInstructions: This guide includes both requirements for emergency planning and response and recommendations. If you choose to use this guide, it must be personalized to work for the needs of your program. You must read everything and make sure it says what you want it to say. It is recommended that you date your plan, including dating when the plan was last reviewed and/or updated.\nThe electronic version of the plan, created using Microsoft Word, may be completed electronically, saved, and printed.\nPrepare:\nThe sections labeled “\nPrepare” suggest steps you can take prior to an emergency, such preparing emergency kits and customizing and outlining an emergency plan specific to your home/facility and geographic location.\nResponse:\nThese areas in the document provide examples and suggested actions for responding to an emergency, as well as recovery efforts. You may modify these sections to meet the specific needs of your facility and children in care.\nConsider how you will prepare for and respond to emergencies and natural disasters. Creating an emergency response plan before the emergency occurs helps make the response quicker and more efficient.\nWhat actions will you take from the time the emergency ends until the needs of staff, children and families are met? What will you do to help families resume their daily activities and help those affected cope with the aftermath of an emergency? Recovery can last for days, months or even years. Incorporating recovery resources into your emergency-preparedness plan will help ","cbCaih93W76A5qUC","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih93W76A5qUC","docx",258282,"English","# Emergency Plan Overview\n## Preparedness and Response Requirements\n## Prevention/Mitigation, Preparation, Response, Recovery\n## Plan Customization and Electronic Use\n## Completing and Locking the Document","[{\"question\":\"What types of emergencies must a regulated child care center plan for?\",\"answer\":\"The guide lists emergencies including fire, tornado, flood, extreme outdoor heat or cold, loss of building services (heat, water, electricity, telephone), human-caused events, food emergencies, allergic reactions, lost or missing children, vehicle accidents, and provider family medical emergencies or illness.\"},{\"question\":\"What must be included to support continuity of operations after an emergency?\",\"answer\":\"The emergency plan must include continuity of operations steps demonstrating how the program will resume business when possible, and it must ensure the needs of all children are met, including infants, toddlers, children with disabilities, and children with chronic medical conditions.\"},{\"question\":\"How should the emergency plan be customized before use?\",\"answer\":\"The guide explains it is not a required form and must be personalized to the program’s needs.
