While it is likely that the WCHD will have the necessary resources to carry out localized public health emergency response and recovery operations, it is possible that county, regional, state, and/or federal assistance may be needed based on the scope of the event. The WCHD will consider the safety and welfare of its personnel when activating the EOP, annexes, and SOGs. The WCHD EOP and Annexes address the elements of mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. In the development of plans, the following assumptions were made: Compliance with the National Incident Management System (NIMS) Basic knowledge of emergency management doctrine including basic knowledge of: National Response Framework (NRF) National Incident Management System (NIMS) Incident Management System (ICS) Ohio Emergency Operations Plan Wood County Emergency Operations Plan Basic knowledge of emergency management doctrine can be attained through the completion of the following online, independent study courses provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). These courses are available at no charge at this link: ICS 100—Introduction to the Incident Command System ICS 200—ICS for Single Resources and Initial Action Incidents IS 700—National Incident Management System (NIMS), An Introduction IS 800—National Response Framework, An Introduction Local Health Districts Respond to Incidents within their Jurisdiction
