Coordination and Response to a Medical / Public Health Emergency Workshop – 8 hrs.
This 2012 Tennessee Department of Health course will offer a more hands-on approach to several topics addressing a healthcare perspective to disaster preparedness and response activities. Coordination and Response to a Medical / Public Health Emergency looks at the essential elements of management and integration of services affecting the healthcare facility during disaster operations. The course will explore the new and revised NIMS (National Incident Management System) and provide a brief overview to HICS. A demonstration display will include local, state, regional, and federal resources available during disaster operations. A Practical Exercise is included to give the participant experience in an exercise environment focusing on the course’s main elements of disaster management functions related to command and control, resources utilization and casualty management practices.
