What is FFCA’s SERP?
It is an award-winning plan that is modeled throughout the nation as well as identified in Florida’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP).
![Page 35: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Previous to the SERP following Hurricane Andrew in 1992, help arrived in South Florida… TOO MUCH of it.
The “help” was unexpected.
The response was uncoordinated.
Specific missions and destinations were never assigned.
The affected area was unprepared.
Why was the SERP initiated?
![Page 36: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
How does the SERP benefit Floridians?
Disasters are chaotic; everyone wants to help, but without proper coordination, free-lance and disorderly relief efforts can:
• frustrate the situation • overburden the impacted area • prevent effective communication
![Page 37: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
How does the SERP benefit Floridians?
Thanks to SERP, Floridians receive a quick and uninterrupted emergency response from qualified and experienced public safety professionals with highly specialized skills and training.
![Page 38: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
How does the SERP Work?
Florida is divided into seven regions, each with a pre-appointed regional coordinator
The seventh
region is broken into two sections: the north and south

Lessons Learned
Many emergency agencies and responders are not familiar with the SERP
More SERP trained FFCA members are needed in leadership roles during extended operations (depth is critical)
Continual plan updating is essential to an effective operation
Early intervention of “SERP Liaisons” is highly desirable
![Page 73: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Lessons Learned
SERP must be responsible for and control all EMS assets
Discipline, discipline, discipline…..
Strike teams are our strong suit
USAR requires formal integration into the plan
![Page 74: FLORIDA FIRE CHIEFS’ ASSOCIATION - FAMA · florida fire chiefs’ association ... dominican republic . haiti . only the second time since 1886 that four hurricanes have made landfall](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022041016/5ec8ac09b6e46265aa7391ef/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Lessons Learned
Communications must be established immediately and continually maintained
We must build additional capabilities to care for our own
The FFCA has some highly skilled and dedicated members
