D. Scenario
During the Northeast Monsoon and the Trough of the Low-Pressure Area (LPA), heavy rainfall affected moisture particularly in the
barangay of Kauswagan. The prolonged period of continuous rain had resulted in instance of flooding at the knee-high level,
resulting in the suspension of classes, several barangays experienced landslides, and other related incidents including neighboring
Municipalities like Tambulig. The strong winds uprooted trees and toppled down some electric posts and damaged
telecommunications facilities. Roads and bridges became impassable for several hours. There were 2 fatalities, 4 injuries and 2
missing persons reported. Some individuals were stranded in their respective homes due to flooding, and several families needed

Scenario:
On November 5, 2028, @ 2 in the afternoon, heavy rains pounded the area due to the
Northeast Monsoon and the Trough of the Low-Pressure Area (LPA), causing the rivers to
overflow and floodwaters to rise rapidly, resulting severe flooding in the vicinity of
Kauswagan National High School. The school emergency response team monitored the
level of rainfall and coordinated the Brgy. Emergency response team. The prolonged
period of continuous rain had resulted in instance of flooding at the knee-high level,
resulting in the school being swamped, trapping several learners, teachers, and staff
inside the school premises. The floodwaters quickly reach dangerous levels, submerging
lower-level classrooms, leaving students stranded on the higher floors and rooftops.
Inside the flooded school, students and staff cling to whatever makeshift flotation
devices they can find, desperately seeking refuge on the higher ground. Some are
stranded on the upper floors of the building, while others are stay on the rooftop. Several
barangays experienced landslides, and other related incidents including neighboring
Municipalities like Tambulig. The strong winds uprooted trees and toppled down some
electric posts and damaged telecommunications facilities. Roads and bridges became
impassable for several hours. The local emergency respondents, including the Municipal
DRRM, Municipal PNP, and Brgy.’s emergency response team, have deployed the
initiative rescue operations.

impassable for several hours.
The Response Cluster, comprising both food and non-food teams, swiftly mobilizes
into action. The food team immediately begins preparing emergency food supplies,
including ready-to-eat meals, bottled water, and essential provisions, ensuring that
nutritious and sustaining meals are available for affected individuals.
Meanwhile, the non-food team focuses on deploying essential non-food items,
such as blankets, clothing, hygiene kits, and medical supplies, to provide comfort and
support to those trapped in the flooded school premises. They also coordinate the
distribution of emergency shelter materials to create safe and dry spaces for displaced
students and staff.
18
Objectives:
1. Improve food security within the school community by ensuring that safe and
sufficient food provisions are distributed to recipients affected by the flood,
addressing immediate nutritional needs, and promoting overall well-being.
1. The Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO) is tasked with
sourcing, procuring, and acquiring food supplies to ensure that essential nutrition
is provided to the school community affected by the flood. They are responsible for
assessing the immediate food needs, coordinating with suppliers, and overseeing
the procurement process to guarantee the timely availability of food resources.
2. The Philippine National Police (PNP) plays a crucial role in assisting with the
distribution of goods, medicines, and other essential items to individuals affected
by the flood within the school premises. They provide logistical support, including
transportation and security, to facilitate the smooth and orderly distribution of
relief goods, ensuring that recipients receive assistance promptly and efficiently.

Municipalities like Tambulig. The strong winds uprooted trees and toppled down some
electric posts and damaged telecommunications facilities. Roads and bridges became
impassable for several hours.
Upon arrival at the flooded school, the Health Response Cluster sets up a
temporary triage area to assess and prioritize medical needs. Trained medical
personnel conduct rapid assessments, treating injuries, addressing medical
emergencies, and providing basic first aid to those in need.
Simultaneously, the cluster coordinates with local healthcare facilities and
emergency medical services to arrange for the evacuation and transportation of
critically injured individuals to nearby hospitals for advanced medical care.
The Health Response Cluster also initiates public health measures to mitigate the
risk of waterborne diseases and other health hazards associated with flooding. They
distribute hygiene kits, water purification tablets, and educational materials on proper
sanitation practices to prevent the spread of illness among the affected population.
20
Objectives:
1. To promptly provide first aid to injured individuals affected by the flooding,
addressing injuries, and providing immediate medical assistance to alleviate pain
and prevent further harm.
2. District Nurse:
- Consolidate all activities conducted by the response team, including medical
assessments, treatments, and referrals, into comprehensive reports.
- Document and track the status of individuals receiving medical assistance during
the flood hazard, ensuring accurate records are maintained for monitoring and follow-
up purposes.
- Coordinate with the RHU and other relevant stakeholders to provide updates on the
health status of individuals affected by the flooding and facilitate ongoing medical
support as needed.
- Collaborate with local authorities and community leaders to disseminate
information on health-related measures and preventive actions to minimize health
risks during and after the flood hazard.

Response Activities
D - 1 month Drills on search rescue and retrieval operation Municipal DRRM/B-DRRM/CVO/S-DRRM Coordinator
Two months before the doom’s day, the lead agency conducted capacity building on search, rescue, and retrieval
operations. Following swift and coordinated search, rescue, and retrieval (SRR) operations conducted during the school flooding
hazard, the response teams successfully evacuated all trapped individuals, including students, teachers, and staff, from the
flooded school premises. Through the diligent efforts of highly skilled and dedicated responders, all missing persons were located
and safely rescued, ensuring no casualties occurred during the emergency. Additionally, timely coordination with other response
clusters and local authorities facilitated the provision of necessary resources and support, enhancing the efficiency and
effectiveness of SRR efforts. As a result, the school community was safeguarded from harm, and all individuals affected by the
22
flooding were accounted for and provided with appropriate assistance and care. The successful outcome of the SRR operations
underscores the importance of preparedness, collaboration, and swift action in mitigating the impacts of natural disasters on
educational institutions and ensuring the safety and well-being of students, teachers, and staff.

Resource Inventory
The school faces the challenge of minimal resources available for use during Search, Rescue, and Retrieval (SRR)
operations in the event of flooding hazards. Despite these limitations, the response teams have demonstrated
resourcefulness and ingenuity by improvising with available materials and equipment to maximize their effectiveness.
Basic tools such as ropes, life jackets, and makeshift flotation devices are utilized to aid in the evacuation of trapped
individuals from flooded areas. Additionally, the school leverages the skills and expertise of its staff and volunteers,
employing creative strategies and collaborative efforts to overcome resource constraints. While the inventory of
resources may be limited, the dedication and resourcefulness of the SRR teams ensure that essential tasks are
accomplished, and lives are safeguarded during emergency situations.
