Definitions Emergency Preparedness: “improve the nation’s ability to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from a major health incident” (CDC) Health Incident: “a wide range of natural and man-made phenomena that may have health consequences that include, but are not limited to, infectious disease outbreaks, hurricanes, earthquakes, storms, tornadoes, tsunamis, hazardous material spills, … terrorist attacks, and fires” (Dept of HHS)

National Health Security Strategy (NHSS)
“The purpose of the NHSS is to refocus the patchwork of disparate public health and medical preparedness, response, and recovery strategies in order to ensure the nation is prepared for, protected from, and resilient in the face of health threats or incidents with potentially negative health consequences.” http://www.phe.gov/Preparedness/planning/authority/nhss/Pages/default.aspx

NHSS Goals 1. Build community resilience
2. Strengthen and sustain health and emergency
response systems

Natural vs. Man Made Disasters
![Page 11: Emergencies: Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery · 2018-04-01 · Previous emergencies have enhanced our understanding of preparedness and response challenges • The](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040621/5f3410b481d8136c8e751a29/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Natural Disasters NATURAL
- Caused by an event “out of human control”
-Generally result in significant community resilience
-Neighbor helping neighbor
- Approximately 8-10% of population may develop PTSD or other anxiety disorders
![Page 12: Emergencies: Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery · 2018-04-01 · Previous emergencies have enhanced our understanding of preparedness and response challenges • The](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040621/5f3410b481d8136c8e751a29/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Man-made Disasters MAN-MADE / Human Intention
- CBNR = chemical, biological, nuclear, radiological
-Neighbor competing with neighbor
- CBNR events (especially terrorism) create more psychological problems than physical ones
higher rates of PTSD, depression, anxiety disorders in the affected population - as high as 45%

Emerging Infections and Bioterrorism May Look Alike
• Outbreak of a rare disease
• Outbreak where disease not endemic
• Disease out of natural season
• Unusual age of those ill
• Unusual clinical presentation – especially respiratory symptoms

Naturally Occurring Outbreaks Throughout History
• Legionnaires, 1976
• Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, 1993
• Plague, India, 1994
• Monkeypox, Zaire, 1996
• West Nile, NYC, 1999

15
Consequences of Disease Outbreaks/Bioterrorism
• High numbers of “worried well”
• Possible limited medical intervention available – competition with neighbors
• Fear of being exposed
• Reduced response capability because of illness

Major Challenges to a Response
Care: - Immediate overwhelming of nearest facility with
lower priority patients -Need to be able to re-route patient transport -Non-facility based triage - Expedited discharge of non-critical patients and
protection of already hospitalized patients - Re-allocation and increase of healthcare personnel
and resources
![Page 21: Emergencies: Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery · 2018-04-01 · Previous emergencies have enhanced our understanding of preparedness and response challenges • The](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040621/5f3410b481d8136c8e751a29/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
More Major Challenges
Cooperation: - Sharing information
- Sharing resources
- Joint, shared, or delegated decision-making
- Requires mutual aid agreements and follow-through
![Page 22: Emergencies: Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery · 2018-04-01 · Previous emergencies have enhanced our understanding of preparedness and response challenges • The](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040621/5f3410b481d8136c8e751a29/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
More Major Challenges Transport: - Limited transport surge capacity. -May require call-up of alternative means of transport - Transport away from overwhelmed facilities -Need to allocate patients between facilities
Situational Awareness: - Facilities and responders need accurate and timely
information -Need to communicate information to one another

Examples of Prevention • Army Corps of Engineers
• Vaccination
• Critical Infrastructure

Summary • Previous emergencies have enhanced our
understanding of preparedness and response challenges
• The NHSS was developed and offers a framework to help citizens and governments prepare for emergencies in a coordinated way
• There are various examples of prevention activities that can help mitigate the impact of an emergency.
