Course Description
The Disaster Preparedness for Healthcare Organizations Within the Community Infrastructure course provides information specific to healthcare organizations’ vulnerability to a disaster. During this FEMA-sponsored course, participants will be introduced to the various natural, technological, and civil hazards to which healthcare organizations may be vulnerable, as well as the potential impacts of those hazards.
Federal guidelines and legislation that serve to aid in the preparedness for, and response to, incidents involving these hazards are discussed, as are current emergency management standards for the healthcare community.
