<li>A stitch in time saves nine. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. And <strong> Action Items are the most important things in a continuity plan.</strong></li>
<li>Action Items are things that could be done now (or anytime before disaster strikes) to make your unit more prepared.</li> 
<li>The typical Action Item begins with a verb and can be stated in one sentence. Some examples:</li>
<ul>
		<li class="indent">Update emergency contact information for faculty & staff at beginning of each semester.</li> 
		<li class="indent">Develop a plan for secure storage of critical research materials.</li> 
		<li class="indent">Cross-train 2 staff members to do dept. purchasing.</li> 
		<li class="indent">Train clinical staff in procedures to follow if medical record system is down.</li>
</ul>		
		

<li>Action Items are ideas, not commitments to act. Please think outside the box and don't feel constrained by resources. </li>

<li>Some of your Action Items may be beyond the scope of your unit to perform.  That's OK, we can deliver your ideas to the proper people!</li>

</ul>
