Facility Staff

Facility Staff can work within eICS to update their profile information. They can also create an incident and assign themselves and others to positions on an active incident.

Facility Staff roles and descriptions
Role Description and Tasks
System

In general, Facility Staff members can access any non-administrative features in the system. They can:

  • Manage their profile, including their contact information.

  • View their facility's incident command plan, incident response guide (IRG) details, and facility library.

  • Start, escalate and end an incident when assigned to an incident position.

  • Open the dashboard of any active incidents for the facilities to which they have access.

Incident When an incident occurs, a staff member assigned to a position defined in the associated IRG takes on that position's role. These individuals can add to and change information in the Incident Dashboard by adding events to the log, adding to the incident's library, updating the status of their position's objectives, sending messages to other participants, and much more.
