What is the General Staff's role in the Incident Command System?

The General Staff is responsible for the functional aspects of the
Incident Command structure and typically consists of the Operations, Planning, Logistics, and Finance/Administration Sections.

Guidelines related to General Staff positions include the following:
• Only one person will be designated to lead each General Staff position.
• General Staff positions may be filled by qualified persons from any agency or jurisdiction.
• Members of the General Staff report directly to the Incident Commander. If a General Staff position is not activated, the Incident Commander will have responsibility for that functional activity.
• General Staff members may exchange information with any person within the organization. Direction takes place through the chain of command.

For EVRAA 2026, the City Health Department - Health Emergency Management Staff established a fully functional Medical Station to ensure that every athlete, coach and official is safe throughout the games.

From minor sprains and muscle cramps to possible emergencies, we stayed on standby — alert, ready and prepared at all times.

Most of the time, our work is waiting. Waiting and watching so the games can continue smoothly. Hoping we won’t be needed, but always ready when we are.
Because every medal matters, but health matters more.

Behind every performance is protection.
Behind every competition is care.

EVRAA 2026 — while athletes compete, we keep them safe. 🩺💙

Arriba, Arriba, Arriba!!!
Go, Fight, Win!
Shine Ormoc!
