Honestly not a ton different! Larger cities will generally have more rooms for offices and such but generally the EOC itself is pretty similar. You want to get key players from the major departments but you don't want to overwhelm the incident with too many people. Plus, the goal is to follow the ICS (Incident command system) in order to be as organized as possible
Another fantastic video. I started off my EMS career in an EOC/control room before going on the road. Love seeing how things are done over the pond in America.
@@HeroesNextDoor Disagree. They were very irresponsible with public money. There's no reason for all those expensive accoutrements, fine furniture, NASA control center electronics, for a never used facility. Could have been built for 20% of this wasted bragging monument to excess.
Have you ever worked a natural disaster like a major hurricane,flood, tornado or a large fire? If so the most difficult and many times a problem is all communication. Without the ability to communicate and get resources it’s next to impossible to do the job. I have personal experience with systems that have a service like this and ones that don’t. The ones that do clearly are easier and safer to work with. Money well spent
@@KevinRiceSLO what will happen when there’s a hurricane, earthquake,tornado, or any other natural disaster. Where will they operate from in a natural disaster
@@billybob2329 It's as if you believe emergency workers can't perform effectively without spending millions on luxury accommodations. EOCs don't prevent natural disasters. How about some modest office space with whiteboards and a couple video screens?
