Closing the Gaps:Violent Threats to SafetyInternal Threats
External Threats
Closing the Gaps:Internal ThreatsSecret Service/USDOE studyIn 81% of cases, at least one other person had information that the attacker was planning the school attack- implication
78% exhibited a history of suicide attempts or suicidal thoughts prior to attack implication
71% of attackers felt persecuted, bullied, or threatened - implication
Closing the Gaps:Internal ThreatsPairing sanctions with intervention and services (not zero tolerance) Suspension/Expulsion alone is not an answer

Basic and Advanced Academies
Top Reasons For Plan FailureDenial (violence prep vs. fire prep)
Relying only on templates
Plan not developed with help from response officials (Illinois Law)
Poor formatting/indexing
Inadequate distribution, training, testing
What To Prepare For:FireBomb threatsUtility failuresSevere weatherHazardous materialsWeapons violenceThreats/Hit lists
DURING/AFTER SCHOOLON/OFF SCHOOL GROUNDS
Lockdown
Quick announcement, repeated twiceTone (P.A. test in rooms)
Have a hard/soft lockdown to empower Anyone can pull fire alarm, why not lockdown?large font guidance by phoneCan your classroom phones access PA to announce lockdown?
LockdownLockdown FailuresCodes
Communication
Focus on Active Shooter
Timingbiggest problem with lockdown is NOT calling lockdown (*up to 70% when gun not fired)
LockdownQuick peek in hallway (if safe) to pull in kids; watch their hands/waistband/body language
Call to security or police if you see something
Know your Role
Does anyone monitor your cameras?
Emergency Codes and Procedures
Consistent in all facilities
Staff should have procedures readily available
Substitute teachers?
Lockdown continuedWhat to do when police arrive:If the police enter your classroom get on the ground with your hands visible On your stomach is the best position because it makes you a smaller target and it also allows police to move quickly over the top of you
If you receive an order from a police officer it may seem gruff and rude but they are also under an extreme amount of stress follow the order quickly and quietly
Uniformed/plain clothes/tactical
Lockdown continuedWhat to do when police arrive:
Their mission is to eliminate the threat
Hands open/do not pull out cell phones
If in hallway, leave in the direction from which they came

Norovirus Health Department will investigate
Will want various pieces of data number sick, signs and symptoms, any common variables, dates of absence
May release information regarding students to health department upon written request and acknowledgement that information will be kept confidential
Individual student identifiable information can not be released by the health department; aggregrate information only
OutbreaksChickenpox and Measles are most common

Many Injured
Many People InjuredRelying solely on emergency medical help is not recommended
Document staff resources
Assign duties
Practice with local EMT, police and hospital personnel
Definition of a Mass CasualtyAny incident in which emergency medical resources are overwhelmed by the number and severity of casualties.
ExamplesBuilding CollapseBus CollisionTornado or EarthquakeBombingNatural Disaster or Terrorist Attack
Can and Will Happen
School staff may be only adults on site for some time period
Triage is the first step to manage event
TriageDuring an event, triage will be done multiple times and will become more sophisticated as new resources arrive
Initial Triage done by school personnel based on knowledge and skill until trained personnel arrive on scene
Purpose of TriageTo quickly (less than a minute) identify victims who have immediate life-threatening injuries AND who have the best chance of survival
To ensure these persons are treated and transported first
To help determine number and type of additional resources, equipment and transport vehicles needed to manage the crisis
Triage Basics Must match local EMS
Indiana uses START
STARTSimpleTriage AndRapidTreatment
How does Triage Begin?
EMS - Quick Assessment looking at three items
RESPIRATIONS
PERFUSION
MENTAL STATUS
CategoriesGREEN MinorYELLOW DelayedRED ImmediateBLACK - Deceased
GREEN - Minor
Minor Injuries
Walking Wounded
Volunteers can assist and monitor
YELLOW - Delayed
RED - ImmediateFirst priority when EMS arrives
Ultimate goals is to FIND, TREAT, and TRANSPORT these patients
At risk for early death usually due to shock or severe head injury
BLACK - Deceased
Do not transport
Coroner may need to check first
May cover if have traumatic injuries
Respiratory Assessment
Check respiratory statusNo respiration reposition airway still no respiration = deceasedOver 30 = immediateUnder 30 = passes, continue to next step
PerfusionMental Status
Perfusion Assessment
Check Capillary RefillOver 2 = control bleeding - immediateUnder 2 = passes, continue to next step
Mental Status
Mental Status Assessment
Ask simple questions
Cant follow simple commands = immediate
Alert and oriented = delayed
Notes
Removed all minor patients
Only tagged deceased if not breathing
Only tagged delayed if passed all three assessments
All else tagged immediate
ImpressionsNoise
Confusion
Unsure of Roles
Emotionally DifficultNot abandoning patients trying to create order and save as many as possibleYou know each person and so is very hard for you move to next personRemember that others will arrive to help soonNot treatment role is to assess, try two specific interventions, tag and move on
Next Steps as Initial Triage CompletedConstantly re-assessingPatient condition can changeMore help arrivesTreatment and Transport begins as soon as initial Triage is completed
School Nurse RoleContact EMS to confirm they use START
Can begin to tag have colored tape available
Start with green if you are able to walk, please come to this area
