Radiological Emergency Response Plan

Arizona Department of Health Services

The Radiological Response Plan provides guidance for healthcare and public health professionals (PHP) responding to a radiological event. Healthcare and PHP responders should never assume there is only one agent present at the scene, unless evidence is presented through scientifically correct and appropriate sampling results. Portions of this plan may not apply if there are chemical or biological agents present. The chemical biological hazard to the worker may be significantly higher than the radiation hazard and the chemical biological response requirements shall take precedence over radiation precautions
