Emergency Action Plan Revised 7/1/2018

Introduction:

1. Have an emergency medical plan for each venue. 2. Proper coverage of all ETSU athletic events by appropriate staff. 3. Proper maintenance of emergency medical equipment/supplies. 4. Utilization of proper emergency staff. 5. Continuing education for all staff on emergency techniques/planning. 6. Communication prior to the event.

Emergency Personnel – This includes physicians, emergency medical technicians, certified athletic trainers, graduate assistant athletic trainers, student athletic trainers, coaches, and managers. The personnel at the event will widely vary according to event and venue. All members may not be present. Within the personnel there are different roles that must be filled to assure the emergency medical plan is utilized correctly. The first responder is the most qualified individual present at the scene. In most cases this will be a certified athletic trainer or student athletic trainer certified in first aid and CPR. The first responder is responsible for verbally commanding other emergency personnel to assume the following roles that are necessary to insure proper management of the emergency.

Roles of First Responders

1: Assessment of the scene and immediate care of the athlete 2: Activation of EMS 3: Retrieval of emergency supplies and equipment 4: Meeting and directing EMS to the scene.

EMS is to be activated (called) when the situation is deemed an emergency or life threatening. Time is crucial at this point and this role should be assumed by someone familiar with the venue location and address. The retrieval of emergency supplies and equipment should be done by someone who knows where and what the equipment is. An assistant coach or student athletic trainer is a good choice for this position. Meeting and directing EMS to the scene of the emergency needs to be done by somebody who has keys to any locked gates or doors that may slow down the arrival of medical personnel.

Activation of EMS Placing the call:

q University phone: 9-6900, 9-4480 or 911 q Cellular phone-on campus: 423-439-6900 or 423-439-4480 q OFF CAMPUS: 911

Information: q Name, address, and telephone number of caller q Location of incident q Nature of emergency q Number of athletes involved q Condition of athlete(s) q Current treatment(s) q Specific directions to locate scene q Any other information requested by dispatcher q DO NOT HANG UP UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO BY DISPATCHER

Emergency Communication Communication is necessary for quick emergency response. If EMS is at the scene, communication of both groups prior to the event is a good way to establish rapport. If EMS is not at the scene, then direct communication with the dispatcher is necessary to maintain emergency medical transportation. Access to a working telephone must be assured before every practice and event. This is most commonly a cellular phone or fixed telephone. At any athletic event, home or away, it is important to know the location of the nearest telephone and how to access it.

Emergency Equipment and Supplies All emergency equipment and supplies should be on hand and easily accessible. Equipment must be in good working order and checked on a regular basis. Personnel must be trained in advance on the use of the equipment and the use should be rehearsed. The following equipment should be stored in a clean and environmentally controlled area and be readily available in the case of an emergency.

q Spine board q Vacuum splints q First Aid Supplies q CPR equipment q Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
