The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth Houston) seeks to protect its personnel, property, and community from the effects of spontaneous and predictable emergency situations by establishing methodologies and procedures to assist employees, students, and visitors in responding to emergency situations.
The Emergency Management Plan was created to provide a protocol and corresponding support mechanism to protect UTHealth Houston's individuals and assets, to avoid injury to individuals, to limit or contain extent of damage to facilities and property, to permit communication systems to function despite the suspension of normal operating conditions, and generally, to enable the institution to respond in a safe, orderly, and efficient manner.
The UTHealth Houston Emergency Management Plan is a multi-hazard plan that addresses the mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery either directly or through reference to other specific plans or appendices such as the Business Continuity Plan, IT Disaster Recovery Plan, Employee Assistance Program Plan, or departmental plans. The scope of this plan is to define emergency situations, categorize levels of emergencies, and to provide procedures to prevent, prepare, respond to, and mitigate emergency situations in a safe, orderly, and efficient manner across our entire campus.

You will also find a template for a Department or Unit Specific Emergency Management and Mission Continuity Plan to map out what your specific department will do when the unexpected does happen.
