Download or read book INTEGRATED GUIDANCE FOR SHELTER MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION TO SHELTER MANAGEMENT written by and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The product of the research described in this technical report was a training text entitled 'Introduction to Shelter Management.' The text was designed for use in end-product shelter management training. The technical report also briefly describes several different approaches to shelter management training into which the training text can be fit. The recommended approach was to use the text as background reading, and to use class meetings for discussions of specific problems and guidance pertinent to the particular group of shelter manager trainees attending the course. The content and organization of the textbook are briefly described in the report, and suggestions are offered for further research in the field of shelter management training.

Download or read book Pilot study on the experiences of hurricane shelter evacuees written by Laura DiGrande and published by RTI Press. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community members who evacuate to shelters may represent the most socially and economically vulnerable group within a hurricane’s affected geographic area. Disaster research has established associations between socioeconomic conditions and adverse effects, but data are overwhelmingly collected retrospectively on large populations and lack further explication. As Hurricane Florence approached North Carolina in September 2018, RTI International developed a pilot survey for American Red Cross evacuation shelter clients. Two instruments, an interviewer-led paper questionnaire and a short message service (SMS text) questionnaire, were tested. A total of 200 evacuees completed the paper survey, but only 34 participated in the SMS text portion of the study. Data confirmed that the sample represented very marginalized coastline residents: 60 percent were unemployed, 70 percent had no family or friends to stay with during evacuation, 65 percent could not afford to evacuate to another location, 36 percent needed medicine/medical care, and 11 percent were homeless. Although 19 percent of participants had a history of evacuating for prior hurricanes/disasters and 14 percent had previously utilized shelters, we observed few associations between previous experiences and current evacuation resources, behaviors, or opinions about safety. This study demonstrates that, for vulnerable populations exposed to storms of increasing intensity and frequency, traditional survey research methods are best employed to learn about their experiences and needs.
Download or read book Integrated Guidance for Shelter Management Planning a Group Shelter written by Robert W. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field-verification and revision of guidance materials for individual shelter planning was the purpose of the report. The existing planning guidance was modified to reflect changes in technology and the shelter planning philosophy, and a Sample Basic Shelter Plan was developed for inclusion in the guide. The sample consisted of sixteen communities selected to review and apply the guidance. Four plans were written during the application of the guidance. Three of these plans adhered closely to the AIR guidance materials and the fourth plan dealt primarily with shelter procedures. The critical comments made by the reviewers indicated that there were no technical inaccuracies and that the technical background information in the guide overlapped with that provided in shelter management training. The findings in this study were reflected in a revision of the guide. The guide has greater emphasis on shelter management, a section dealing with planning for shelter security, and more information on closing the shelter. Minor revisions were made to reflect changes in technology and changes in the Federal program.
Download or read book Integrated Guidance for Shelter Management Shelter Manager s Guide written by Ada S. Brandegee and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the project was to develop and evaluate in-shelter guidance materials which any fallout shelter manager, trained or untrained, could use as an operational management guide. An initial version of the 'Shelter Manager's Guide' was used by both trained managers and emergent leaders in 24- and 48-hour habitability studies conducted by the American Institutes for Research. After the 'Shelter Manager's Guide' was revised, it was evaluated in an experimental comparison with other types of guidance materials. The final product is arranged by priority of management decisions and actions within five shelter phases: Entry, Initial Organization and Operations, Routine, Temporary Emergence, and Contingencies (emergencies). It provides the management decision and actions necessary to organize and operate a fallout shelter, and supplies the information which the manager needs to support these decisions and actions.

It was pointed out that these research findings should be used to identify problems requiring more intensive study, rather than as a basis for any operational recommendations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose and scope of the work was twofold: (1) To further develop and test the shelter management contingency game as a research device, emphasizing the realistic presentation of problems related to the operation of a large shelter to a management cadre inhabiting a small portion of the simulated large shelter. (2) To investigate the feasibility of the development of a predictive model of the large shelter. The results indicate that the development of such a model is feasible, and is useful in terms of compiling and ordering existing data and indicating where further research may be directed profitably.

Book excerpt: Objectives were: (1) further development and testing of the Shelter Management Contingency Game, and (2) investigation of feasibility of the development of a predictive model of the large shelter. After modification of the original training version, two 24-hour test exercises were run and a "first-cut" of a predictive model was evolved.

Download or read book Integrated Guidance for Shelter Management the Selection and Recruitment of Shelter Managers written by Robert W. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development, field-verification, and revision of guidance materials for the selection and recruitment of shelter managers suitable for use by local civil defense personnel was the purpose of the project. The scope of existing guidance was reduced by eliminating both the training guidance and the discussion of the supporting methodology. A sample of ten representative communities was selected to use the guidance to implement a selection and recruitment program. Data collected included: previous selection and recruitment efforts, comments on the materials, effectiveness of selection and recruitment programs implementing the guidance, and information on the community. Although response to the principles was favorable, considerable difficulty was encountered in convincing the local civil defense personnel to use personal contact in selection and recruitment. In those communities where the guidance was applied, the results indicated that the Guide's recommended methods are superior to the more traditional method of general requests for volunteers. Further verification of the guidance was gained from observing a pilot recruitment program conducted by Region, state, and local civil defense workers in a Western city.
