Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Submissions

Florida Department of Health in Madison County

Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) Submissions 

Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) is a detailed, well thought-out document that provides direction and information on what activities an agency will focus on during a storm. It includes preparation activities as well as response activities to help mitigate losses from a disaster or emergency situation.

The Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (ACHA) requires medical facilities to have a CEMP updated and reviewed annually.

The Florida Department of Health is responsible for reviewing CEMPs from the following agencies:

  • Home Health Aid
  • Home Medical Equipment Providers
  • Hospices
  • Nurse Registries

ACHA’s Emergency Services  page provides additional information regarding this requirement as well as templates to aid in the creation of your local CEMP.
