Bringing Emergency Preparedness to Communities
August 12, 2008

An emergency can occur any time. It could be an auto accident, fire, disease outbreak or a major natural disaster. Restaurants must prepare for potential emergencies, especially since their communities often rely on them as a food source in times of crisis. Discover what you need to do with resources from the American Dietetic Association. The association recently completed a year-long initiative that resulted in the creation of an Emergency Preparedness Task Force. The task force addresses ADA members’ needs and provides resources. Find out how the ADA and the National Restaurant Association Quality Assurance Study Group are working together to help restaurants and their communities prepare for disasters.
