Effective emergency planning isn’t optional, it’s essential. Whether you operate a small business, manage a remote lodge, run a summer camp, or oversee any public-facing operation, the ability to respond to unexpected events can determine whether you recover quickly, or suffer costly disruptions, legal exposure, and reputational harm. Poseidon H2O’s Emergency Planning Division provides expert support to help you build resilient, compliant, and practical emergency response systems tailored to your needs.
We assist businesses, municipalities, camps, and organizations in developing full emergency response plans that meet recognized best practices and, where applicable, local and provincial regulatory requirements.
Our plans are practical, easy to implement, and designed specifically for your operations. We cover:
Severe weather and natural disasters
Power outages and utility failures
Water supply emergencies
Hazardous material incidents
Medical emergencies
Evacuation and shelter-in-place procedures
Communication and notification protocols
Resource and supply management
Roles, responsibilities, and chain-of-command
We ensure that your plan is built with real-world conditions in mind and can be relied upon in high-stress situations.
If you already have an emergency plan, we can review it to identify gaps, inefficiencies, outdated content, or compliance issues.
We evaluate:
Alignment with current standards
Risk assessment completeness
Clarity and usability
Training and implementation needs
Realistic operational applicability
Our reviews strengthen your existing plan without forcing you to rebuild from scratch.
A plan is only as good as the equipment behind it.
We help organizations:
Determine what emergency supplies they actually need
Build customized emergency kits for specific hazards
Establish replenishment and inspection schedules
Understand minimum standards (based on St. John Ambulance and recognized emergency authorities)
Whether you're preparing a basic office kit or an advanced remote-location response pack, we ensure your team has the right tools on hand.
Poseidon H2O develops and delivers informational briefings, workshops, and print/digital materials to support your team’s readiness.
We offer:
Staff training sessions
Tabletop exercises
Hazard-specific briefings
Public-facing educational materials
Emergency response quick guides
Custom publications tailored to your operations
Training is essential—not only for safety but for legal defensibility. We help ensure your staff are prepared, confident, and capable during real emergencies.
Our guide for clients and others to planning for disasters of all kinds. Focusing on developing emergency kits for sheltering in place, evacuating to a shelter, or evacuating to a campsite, the guide talks users through building all three, describing how to think about each resource for the situation.
The guide will also discuss measures people can take to secure their homes, pets, and use their vehicles appropriately to increase survivability when the unforeseen happens.
