State Plans and Supporting Documents
Plans are the foundation of successful responses. It is important that all stakeholders have an understanding of response plans and are able to implement them successfully during disasters. This page contains the following Florida state-level plans and planning resources:
- Public Health and Health Care Preparedness (PHHP) Strategic Plan
- Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP)
- Department of Health Emergency Operations Plan (EOP)

Florida law establishes the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan as the core operations document for the State of Florida and it is the framework through which the state handles emergencies and disasters. The CEMP is maintained for all state agencies by the Division of Emergency Management and includes a base plan, incident annexes, Emergency Support Function appendices, and other supporting plans.
The public health and medical components of the State's response are coordinated through Emergency Support Function 8 (ESF8) and documented in Appendix 8 of the CEMP. The ESF8 Appendix is the foundation for all other ESF8 plans.
Public Health and Medical has the lead for developing and maintaining some of the incident annexes and support plans to the CEMP in coordination with other State Emergency Response Team partners.
