Planning Emergency Response - Disaster Preparation

All ICF/IID facilities are required by federal regulations to "have detailed written plans and procedures to meet all potential emergencies and disasters, such as fire, severe weather, and missing clients." [CFR § 483.470 (h) W Tag 438] 


California's Health and Safety Code and California Code of Regulations - Title 22 specify the "details" that are required in the facility emergency plan to assure, "The environment promotes the health and safety, independence and learning of the individuals who reside there."
