Civil liability: when a person engages in conduct that results in harm to another private individual: if you do not have an eap you are liable. Criminal liability: when a person contravenes social standards as expressed by criminal laws: again eaps are to protect your civil liability. Intentional torts: harm was intended to another (assault, battery, etc. ) Damage or injury that results from the breach. A document to be followed in the event of a medical emergency with outlines the mutually agreed upon areas of responsibility and methods of delivery via step by step procedures. We have eaps so that we know who, what, where how and what we should do or contact or proceed during an emergency. It is important that when you rehearse these scenarios you have all of the people that will be involved present this improves the response time and makes it possible to detect deficiencies. Debriefing have a document that incorporates change when they happen.
