Prepare I Respond I Recover

Disaster Training and Resource Coordination for Health Facilities

PRepare

We will help you create and implement an incident command system so your team knows how to respond in an active emergency and can qualify to receive funding.

Respond

Our network of health care partnerships can help you get what you need when you need it most.

recover

Don’t let a disaster derail you. We can show you how to regain stability and get back to business quikcly in the aftermath of an emergency.

Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late

If the Covid pandemic taught us anything, it’s that we can expect the unexpected. Disasters and emergencies can catch us off-guard, forcing health care facilities to close unexpectedly and leaving patients without the life-saving care they need. Would you and your team know what to do in the event of:

  • Ice/freezing
  • Natural Disaster
  • Viral Outbreak
  • Power Outage
  • Mass Casualty Event
  • Loss of Water
Do not wait until something happens. Join the coalition now and have peace of mind that when the unexpected happens, you will be ready.

What we love to do

(That you probably dread)

Paperwork

We have years of experience requesting funding from the local and federal government. We can help you apply for grants, register with TEMA, search for funding opportunities, and help you pass your CMS survey.

ADVOCATE

When disaster strikes, the efficiency of communication is vital. We will advocate for your facility by connecting you with life-saving resources. The Executive Director and Board are always here for you in times of need.

GET MESSY

Truthfully, horrible things happen every day. We are not afraid to get in the middle of a mess and find a way out. When you need to help locate family members in a tragedy, coordinate with the Red Cross or the FBI, or facilitate an evacuation, we will be there to help.

In this together

We believe that you should feel supported and prepared in the event of a crisis. That is why we have built a network of local resources that can stand with you in the most trying times. In the last 10 years, MSEPC has:
  • Convened local subject matter experts to address healthcare facility issues
  • Obtained necessary resources during events – potable water, non-potable water, equipment, medical supplies
  • Issued alerts and notifications related to mass casualty events
  • Provided onboarding and training for patient tracking and bed availability software
  • Worked with local agencies to assist in family information and potential reunification during large events
  • Communicated with local response agencies to ensure healthcare facilities are supported during events
  • Operated with an active board that includes local representation
  • Helped facilitate grant opportunities
  • Managed the distribution and transfer of the Covid vaccine
  • Secured a federal team for Baptist Memorial to help with clinical support
  • Coordinated mandated Covid testing in long-term facilities
