CRISIS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

If you think Risk Management and emergency Care training is expensive – try paying for, or living with the aftermath of an accident!

Introduction

In most work environments the management of a crisis rests with the management at the time of the incident and ultimately the reputation of the company rests not on the outcome of the crisis but the way it was dealt with. Resorts and Hotels are no exception. If incidents involving guests and accidents are handled poorly the cost can be high.

Pacific Medicare provides Risk Management and Crisis Management to address the complex issues involved in risk proofing a working environment to minimise the risk of an incident. The courses also provide the skills training necessary for personnel to manage a crisis from its creation to the end.

This course is not a standard course but is situational and specific to each work place, Resorts especially. Risk and Crisis Management Training is strongly recommended on the Resort, in conjunction with emergency care training, and after consultation with Pacific Staff to ensure essential factors of risk are identified and trained on accordingly
