NET Incident Command System (ICS) Forms: Difference between revisions

The Damage Assessment Form is the most basic and essential form in a volunteer’s kit. A volunteer uses the form to record damage observed in a neighborhood (such as fires, utility hazards, structural damage, injuries and casualties, and available access) while moving through the area to the NET Staging Area. Upon arriving at the NET Staging Area, the volunteer turns the Damage Assessment Form in to the Team Leader. The Team Leader then uses all the Damage Assessment Forms turned in to formulate and prioritize action plans (reflected on <u>Form 4: Team Leader’s Assignment Tracking Log</u>).

With insight from drills and exercises, NET volunteers redesigned this form to facilitate faster radio communications. Those redesigns are reflected below in Forms 1b-1, 1b-2, and 1c. Use of these versions of the forms are ''optional'', and to the discretion of an Incident Team Leader. If a volunteer does not feel certain which NET Form 1 to use, just use the original (highlighted in yellow in the table below).
