Crisis Response Leader Training

Indiana healthcare leaders and emergency managers — there is a major opportunity on the table. The Indiana Regional Healthcare Preparedness Coalition (RHTP) GROW Grant is designed to strengthen regional readiness, coordination, and response capabilities across healthcare systems and the communities they serve. This is exactly the kind of forward-leaning investment that moves organizations beyond compliance and into true preparedness and sustained operations. Crisis Response Leader Training (CRLT) has formally submitted to be included on the vendor list for this program. Here’s why we believe CRLT adds immediate value to RHTP regional committees and participating healthcare networks: • We move teams from plans to performance. Most organizations have binders — very few have validated decision-making under pressure. • Our engaging simulations replicate real-world incidents (workplace violence, mental health incidents, active threats, mass casualty, hazmat, infrastructure failure) with measurable outcomes. We combine this with highly qualified professionals that help shape and guide your safety and security program. • We align healthcare, emergency management, and first responders in a shared operating environment — strengthening coordination before a real incident occurs. • Our platform scales across systems — from individual nurses and staff, to hospital leadership to regional coalitions — supporting awareness, education, professional development, unified training, evaluation, and after-action improvement. • We deliver data-driven insights that help justify funding, demonstrate capability growth, and reduce operational risk. The intent of the GROW Grant is not just to spend funds — it’s to measurably improve readiness across Indiana. That requires solutions that are immersive, repeatable, and grounded in how people actually perform in crisis. We’re excited about the momentum already building in Indiana. We are working closely with the leading healthcare network on advanced preparedness programs that push beyond traditional training models and into integrated, leadership-driven response. And today, Joe Romero and Tod Langley CEO will be engaging leaders and emergency managers via the ASIS Indianapolis chapter — hosted at IU Methodist — thanks to the leadership and support of Jamon Jack. If you are involved in RHTP planning or grant execution and want to explore how CRLT can support your region, we’re ready to engage. #RHTP #GROWIndiana #DepartmentofHealth #healthcare #safety #workplaceviolence #nursesafety #workforcedevelopment #infrastructure #training #awareness #liability #riskmanagement #hospital Joe Romero Chetrice Romero Aaron Marks, SRMCP Micah Beckwith Michael Seagrave Douglas (Doug) Johnson Nate Fikse, CFP®, ChFC®, CLU®, CLF ® Scott Goodhart Frances Sharp Matthew Fuller Justin Darling, CBCP, MEP, NEMAA, SAS-AP Paul Cramer Chris Grollnek Glenn G.

What were the major take-aways from our first Public Safety Mastermind session with Andy Arnold at the American Excellence Institute? A simple "ice breaker game" on situational awareness - find the hidden risks - can serve to understand the various risks that a facility may encounter, the prioritized types of assets (people, places, and things) that need to be protected, the likelihood of risks occurring compared to the most impactful risks that may occur. In just this simple screenshot, we were able to discuss key control, equipment inventory, and hallway monitoring. There were 27 various hidden risks to find under a shot timer! The engagement from the participants was outstanding! And we just wrapped up the second session with more great lessons learned. Want to know more? Reach out to Tod Langley CEO or Andy Arnold for more information on the second cohort dates and registration. Frances Sharp Scott Goodhart Matthew Fuller A.

Our second Public Safety Mastermind session is coming up soon and the topic could not be more relevant to many school leaders, staff, and responders this month: Severe Weather! In our cohort program, co-developed with Andy Arnold of the American Excellence Initiative, we address relevant safety and security topics, network, share best practices, and use the CRLT The Incident simulation as a backdrop for scenario-based discussions. Last week - Personal Situational Awareness, Asset Prioritization, Risk Likelihood and Impact This week - Severe Weather, Problem-Solving, and Delegation in the immediate aftermath of an incident. Look for announcements about when our next cohort registration opens. Andy Arnold Matthew Fuller A.

Imagine the detailed planning, time, and costs needed to design, plan, coordinate and execute a city-wide exercise on CBRNE/WMD... And imagine trying to do that more than once without pulling your hair out! CRLT is in the early design process for a new scenario fully integrated into our award-winning 3D simulation and learning platform, "The Incident." Take a look at our first teaser video. Let us know what you think. Is this of interest to you? What do you need? Interested in becoming an early adopter? DM Tod Langley CEO for a private discussion.

CRLT's Tod Langley CEO was honored to be an observer to Army and state CST discussions and exercises. This is a critical homeland defense and response capability that provides rapid deployment of CBRNE skills in support of unified command. But at the local government level, or at the organizational level, do you know how to identify and mitigate risks associated with Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear and Explosives (CBRNE)? How do you incorporate these types of risks into your vulnerability assessment and your Emergency Action Plan? #tabletop #3Dsimulations #leadership #CST #CBRNE #unifiedcommand #CRLTInc

There’s a consistent pattern we’ve observed across HazMat and CBRNE training environments: Strong technical capability… but limited opportunity to repeatedly rehearse the decisions that actually determine outcomes under pressure. Between classroom instruction and large-scale exercises, there’s a gap— particularly at the command level where coordination, timing, and prioritization matter most. At CRLT, we’ve been quietly working on bridging that gap. Our focus isn’t on replacing field training. It’s on enabling leaders to rehearse complex, multi-agency scenarios repeatedly—before the stakes are real. Recent R&D efforts have been centered on: - Command-level decision-making under CBRNE conditions - CST to follow-on force coordination dynamics - Throughput and timing challenges in mass casualty environments - Civil-military integration within ICS frameworks We’re continuing to refine this capability alongside our partners. More to follow. #hazmat #CBRNE #Simulations #tabletop #incidentcommand #unifiedcommand #CST #CERFP #CRLTInc

Coming this summer ~ Friday Night Lights Scenarios - Gun violence - Bomb Threats - Active Shooter - Severe Weather Impacts Now that our Community Center level is nearing completion and going through the QA process, we have started on the design considerations for an outdoor sporting event at the school. This will allow participants to understand more risks and prevention strategies. Every few months, we come out with more scenarios, more features, more updates. Join us in our efforts to create safer and more resilient communities through "anytime access" for recurring awareness, education, and training for schools, universities, healthcare, critical infrastructure, and government facilities. Want to know more? DM us here with your questions, or we can set you up with a private discussion. #publicsafety #recurringtraining #venuesecurity #tabletop #simulations

Scott Hyderkhan, Active Shooter-Hostile Response (ASHER) Doctrine in Prevention and Response Risk Management Chapter Author: Tod Langley CEO "However, a common pitfall for leaders is to over-rely upon MoP as a validation or achievement within a risk management process without considering the MoE. Following is an adage worth concluding the chapter with: You built a bridge. Great! But was it the right bridge for the right place at the right time to get the right people across?" ~ Tod Langley adds, "I can understand that there are major demands put against our risk and emergency leaders. These concerns typically fall into three major categories: - Scope: the leadership leaves you with vague, incomplete, or unreachable objectives - Schedule: there is a constant struggle to find the time to design, plan, and conduct training, or supervise execution - Cost: your tasks are typically viewed as a cost-center and you rarely get everything you need to get the job done However, when we only focus on the compliance tasks, and the Measures of Performance, without evaluating Preparedness (the Measures of Effectiveness) we are giving our leaders a false sense that we are ready for "High Impact" risks..."
