# Incident Response
**Overview**\
Verkada Incident Response helps organizations track the well-being and location of people during an emergency or incident. It allows you to account for employees, visitors, or students quickly and can be used to reunify students with their guardians in school settings.
This collection explains how to set up Incident Response in Verkada Command, including importing sites, managing personnel lists, and building Response Templates that define who must be accounted for, which statuses can be used, and how locations are tracked.
