Healthcare Disaster Management Training
December 4 @ 8:00 am - 2:00 pm
Does your healthcare facility need training on surge capacity management for natural hazards, chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosives (CBRNE) incidents? Join us for this online adaptation of Healthcare Disaster Management Training, an in-depth two-day session that is a product of the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services Emergency Medical Services Agency’s Disaster Resource Center Program.
This two-day online course has a broad approach, for both a clinical and non-clinical target audience that includes but is not limited to administrators, physicians, nurses, emergency care technicians, safety, security, facilities, mental health, ancillary, legal/risk management, human resources, educators, clinic and first receiver staff. Participants will learn how to move beyond awareness and focus on operational strategies and are eligible to receive BRN and Prehospital CE.
At the end of the course, participants will be able to:
• Understand an all-hazards approach in disaster management, to successfully coordinate healthcare response during a mass-casualty incident.
• Describe the healthcare facility’s role in a disaster.
