the function of living cells and alters the body
or mental processes when taken into the body
or applied through the skin.
A. Psychological dependency
- Comes when a drug is used regularly, and the
mind has become emotionally dependent on
its influence, either feeling pleasure or
relieving pain. It does not feel able to function
without it.
Its absence gives rise to intense cravings,
often brought on or magnified with stress. A
user may have either aspect of dependence but
usually has both.
B. Psychological dependency

(hazard identification).
 determine appropriate ways to eliminate the
hazard, or control the risk when the hazard
cannot be eliminated.

 A Crisis Management Plan (CMP) is the
physical manifestation of crisis management,
it is a document that outlines and describes
the procedures and processes that an
organization should undertake as a response
to a critical situation that threatens its
profitability, reputation or ability to operate.
 To design and craft a crisis management
plan, the planner should consider the
following parts:
1. References
2. Background
3. Objectives
4. Purpose
5. Concept of Operation
6. Coordinating Instruction
7. Effectivity
1. References
 the planner should mention all the books,
handouts,articles, and other related readings
used in crafting the crisis management plan.
 these will serve as the legal basis for the
creation of the guidelines, policies and
procedure in your plan.
2. Background
 this part will give an overview on the history
of the establishment/institution, barangay/area
as well as the mission, vision and goals.

security survey, facilities and geographical
location.
3. Objectives
 these are the specific result which the plan
aims to achieve.
4. Purpose
- the reason why do we need to craft a
crisis management plan
 Concept of Operation
 The concept of operation of the crisis
management plan can be divided into three (3)
stages:
1. Stage 1 (Pre-crisis)
 contains the preparation of the
establishment/institution to prevent or mitigate
the effect of a hazard/emergency.
2. Stage 2 (Crisis Response)
 this phase comprises the guidelines, policies
and procedures to response during
hazard/emergency situation. Each
hazard/emergency situation should have a
different guidelines, policies and procedures to
response.
3. Stage 3 (Post-crisis)
 this phase is for the recovery and rehabilitation
of an establishment/institution.
 may include the debriefing activity.
 Mustering, inventory, relief, rehabilitation
restoration, and reconstruction are the other
activities that may be included in the stage
 Coordinating Instruction

instruction and task to all
concern individuals and
department to maintain the
synchronization and unity of
command and orders.
 Effectivity
 this is the part of the plan that
indicates the date when the plan
is approve and will take effect.
 in addition, plan is subject for
revision/amendment depending
on the current situation of the
establishment/institution.
