VUMC departments and units are required to develop and maintain area-specific emergency preparedness sub-plans. The purpose of the sub-plan is to outline an emergency communication plan and area specific emergency preparedness information for staff.
Sub-Plan Templates
Use these templates, provided through the Emergency Operations website, to create your area's sub-plan. Login required. 
- Department & Unit Emergency Operations SubPlan - download as PDF or WORD file
- Off-campus Quick Reference Guide - download as PDF or WORD file.
- Red front cover with spine insert for 3 ring binders
The VUMC Safety & Emergency Operations Manual is now available online, and red manuals are no longer supplied. This document provides departments with a red cover and spine that can be inserted into 1, 2, or 3 inch 3-ring binders.
Review and Update Annually
The unit call tree/staff contact phone list must be updated annually. The entire unit sub-plan, consistent with other VUMC Policies and Procedures, is to be reviewed annually. These documents are to be maintained in a red binder in each unit and department. If a red binder is not available, use the red front cover with spine insert.
