INTRODUCTION
The Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) doctrine consists of fundamental principles that frame a common approach to exercises. Applying these principles to both the management of an exercise program and the execution of individual exercises is critical to the effective examination of capabilities. HSEEP is:
Guided by elected and appointed officials
Capability-based, objective driven
Progressive planning approach
Whole community integration
Informed by risk
Common methodology

There is an entire process for developing an exercise, however CDPHE has done most of this for us (yay!!)
Exercise Planning Process (simplified) Assess needs
Write a statement of purpose (Goal or End State)
Define scope
Develop exercise objectives (Means of Achieving Goal)
Develop a scenario
Develop Injects and Expected Actions
Make a timeline (can be done first)
Logistics and Planning Components for Conduct
Conduct the exercise
Hotwash and After Action Report

Developing an Exercise
Oct. to Dec. 2014: Start/continue to address pandemic & epidemic plans within your facility. Provide training to back-up personal as needed.
Those ultimately responsible for planning or implementing the plan if there was a pandemic/epidemic
Review materials Kelly sends out to prepare for the tabletop
January 8, 2015:
The Foothills Healthcare Coalition Pandemic Influenza Tabletop RSVP for and attend the tabletop We recommend each agency brings between 2-5 people
Those ultimately responsible for planning or implementing the plan if there was a pandemic/epidemic
Stay the entire time to participate in the Hot Wash at the end (super important)
Jan. to Mar. 2015:
Incorporate lessons learned from the tabletop into your plans.
