Job Titles and Position Qualifications for Mass Care Services 

FEMA has released for public comment three guidance documents on mass care job titles and qualifications. The guidance provides a standardized set of criteria for use by the whole community when delivering mass care services. These job titles and qualifications will also serve as interim guidance to support mass care operations across the nation. They are:

• State Mass Care Coordinator
• Shelter Manager
• Field Kitchen Manager

The job titles and qualifications were developed by a Mass Care Support Team, made up of subject matter experts. The team suggested guidance on the job description, education, training, experience, physical and medical fitness, currency, professional and technical licenses and certifications for each of these positions.

Additionally, FEMA has released for public comment two mass care-typed resources. The resources will also serve as interim guidance to support Mass Care professionals across the nation. They include:

• Field Kitchen Unit
• Shelter Management Team

The Mass Care Support Team suggested guidance for specific overall functions, components, capabilities and order specifications for each resource.

This mass care guidance addresses some of the most commonly requested resources through mutual aid.
