Although communities and individual emergency officials may never encounter such situations, it’s imperative that this event type be taken into account during the design and implementation of disaster management systems. Results suggested that there may be role abandonment issues, differing from one practitioner type to another, each with unique reasons given the event type. We explore a different angle, focusing on individual practitioners including: (1) fire, (2) police and (3) emergency medical services. Event types such as deluges and pandemics surface as scenarios supporting one set of examples.
Role abandonment once was considered unlikely by research scientists however emergency management officials have experienced catastrophic events that counter prior assumptions.
