Instructions

Considering the scenario, create a 10-12 slide (equivalent to about 10 minutes) PowerPoint presentation (with detailed speaker’s notes) designed to inform the hospital board of the importance of creating a robust Disaster Recovery Plan. It should address the following:

• Describe areas of risk, including the specific nature of the risk, to the hospital if the plan is not revised.
• Identify all primary stakeholders (internal and external) that should be considered or consulted when creating a disaster plan.
• Outline the major items a comprehensive disaster plan should include with a brief description of why each is critical. Examples of areas are staffing, supplies, protocols, et cetera.
• Choose the most important aspect of your disaster plan outline and do the following. (If necessary, make and state any assumptions that you have to flesh out your reasoning.)
  • Justify the choice of the primary issue, including identifying the areas of significant impact such as budget, staffing, communications, et cetera.
  • Describe a manner in which the plan can be effectively communicated.
  • Explain all significant barriers to implementation.
