How to Use this Template This was created

How to Use this Template • This was created as a blank template to allow you freedom of color/design and font choice • NYC PDC suggests to use the font size/style within this presentation for readability purposes • All information within this template is what the PDC uses to conduct a controller/evaluator training • Anything in [ ] should be made specific to your hospital • The PDC suggests adding in pictures where it is appropriate This template is for a Tabletop, Drill and Full-Scale Exercise • Use the section that you need and delete the others (slides 6 -27). • Delete slide 29 unless you are doing a drill or full-scale exercise

Drill Players • [Bullet here what departments are taking part in the exercise]

Scenario • [Insert scenario in its entirely here]

Drill Design Assumptions • Conducted in a “no-fault” environment • Not designed as a “no notice” exercise • [Communications should occur in real-time using standard equipment and systems]

Areas of Exercise Play • [List here where the exercise will take place]

Full-Scale Exercise

[Name of Exercise] Full-Scale Exercise Overview • Length: [put in how long the exercise will be (hrs)] • Scenario: [write your brief scenario here] • Goal(s): [write your overall goal(s) here] • Locations Involved: [put in locations here]

Planning Team Composition • [Bullet here who your planning team was (titles and departments)]

Full-Scale Exercise Players • [Bullet here what departments are taking part in the exercise]

Scenario • [Insert scenario in its entirely here]

Full-Scale Exercise Design Assumptions • Conducted in a “no-fault” environment • Not designed as a “no notice” exercise • Communications should occur in real-time using standard equipment and systems

Full-Scale Exercise Artificialities • Exercise play will not involve live pattern care • [Exercise communication/coordination will be limited to participating exercise locations] • [Only institution's name existing communications equipment will be available to player]s • [Institution's name may need to balance exercise play with real-world emergencies - real-world emergencies will take priority] • [All communications/activities from external entities will be notionalized] • [Type of patients will be notionalized by using life-sized mannequins] • [Time jumps in the scenario may occur and will be conveyed to players by controllers]

Controller/Evaluator Strategies & Materials

Master Scenario Events List (MSEL) • Chronological listing of scripted events that generate activity in specific functional areas in support of exercise objectives • Contains injects which are scenario events that prompt players to implement the plans that the exercise is designed to test • Contextual Injects • Controller to player • Build contemporary operating environment • Contingency Injects • Controller to player • Events communicated to players if they do not occur • Necessary for play to continue and reach exercise objectives

Exercise Evaluation Guide (EEG) • The Exercise Evaluation Guides (EEGs) are structured to capture information specifically related to the evaluation requirements developed by the Exercise Planning Team. The following evaluation requirements are documented in each EEG: • Core capabilities • Capability targets • Critical tasks
