Active Shooter Response: Can a Comprehensive Approach Address the Existing Gaps?

Carlos Mejia’s CHDS master’s thesis, “Active Shooter Response: Can a Comprehensive Approach Address the Existing Gaps?,” analyzes the shortcomings of the current Incident Command System in active shooter situations and suggests the development of a national response model to improve readiness.

Mejia urges for a new approach that combines the efforts of emergency services and the community to enhance the effectiveness of life-saving actions in such crises.
