Communication
Plan
Creating an emergency contact list, creating
communication protocols, and doing regular
activities to make sure everyone is comfortable
with the processes are all part of the preparation
phase. Creating an emergency communication
group, communicating via different methods, and
giving short updates on the situation are all part of
the fast response phase. Establishing the central
point for team members to share information and
updates and holding frequent meetings to keep
everyone informed are examples of internal
communication. Using government social media
accounts, communicating with local officials, and
giving the public clear instructions are all part of
external communication.
During the recovery phase, there will be updates
on the recovery process, community concerns will
be addressed, and sharing of resources with
groups will be arranged. Maintaining complete
documentation of all communications both before
and after the earthquake, doing a post-event
evaluation, and identifying areas in need of
improvement are all part of the documentation
and evaluation process. Both knowledge and
training are crucial; team members should get
continuous guidance on efficient emergency
communication techniques, and the community
should be made aware of earthquake readiness
and communication procedures.
Adaptability is crucial, requiring regular
evaluations and adjustments to take into account
staff or technological changes as well as lessons
learned from previous incidents. During an
earthquake, communication must be clear and
quick. A carefully planned communication plan can
greatly reduce damage and speed up recovery.
