Disaster and Emergency Services (D.E.S.) or Emergency
Management is an integrated effort to prevent - or minimize the
seriousness of - emergencies and disasters and to plan and coordinate
the community's response to them should they occur. It requires
establishing partnerships among professional emergency management
personnel to prevent, respond to, and recover from disasters.
Coordination is a key factor in establishing an emergency management
program, and continual improvement saves lives and reduces losses
from disasters.
