Emergency Operations Centre
An Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) is a designated facility where government and emergency response agencies coordinate actions during a crisis like a natural disaster, large accident, or public health emergency. It serves as the central command hub for gathering information, making decisions, deploying resources, and communicating with the public and responders. The EOC ensures that all involved organizations work together efficiently, share critical updates, and execute plans to manage and mitigate the emergency effectively. Essentially, it is the strategic headquarters that helps organize the response to keep people safe and restore normalcy quickly.
