Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission. (2019). Initial report submitted to the governor, speaker of the house of representatives and senate president. Retrieved from http://www.fdle.state.fl.us/MSDHS/CommissionReport.pdf
Write a critical response (6–7 pages) to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Commission Report outlining how the performance of first responders could have been improved. Include the following in your response:
Preparedness: How could preparedness measures been improved before the shooting?
Response: After identifying the failures in the active shooter response, as scene commander what measures would you have employed to address the active shooter threat?
Recovery: How could have recovery efforts been improved to save more lives?
Mitigation strategies are typically implemented following lessons learned from a tragic event or disaster. In each of the three phases noted above (Preparedness, Response, and Recovery) include 1–2 paragraphs (use headings) explaining how mitigation could have better prepared first responders.
NOTE: This assignment will require outside research. Include at least two credible sources beyond the text material and discuss how you evaluated the credibility of the resources
