In an era of evolving climate risks and increased regulatory oversight, basic compliance is no longer enough.

Attendees will learn how to:

Conduct meaningful Hazard Vulnerability Assessments (HVAs).
Design effective tabletop and full-scale exercises.
Streamline emergency preparedness documentation for surveys.
Leverage modern tools, including artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted planning, to maintain readiness without added administrative burden.

Registration is FREE, but required.

This webinar is ideal for administrators, emergency preparedness coordinators, and clinical leadership involved in compliance and resident safety.
