Public Health Issues Management

Course Description

The course is designed to provide guidance to hospitals, emergency medical services (EMS), health care facilities, and citizens who may become involved in a mass casualty event as a result of a hazardous materials incident, a natural physical or health hazard, or a terrorist's use of a weapon of mass destruction (WMD). The course focuses on the health provider's role and goes beyond organizational charts and checklists to deal with the entire role of the hospital inside and outside the emergency department during such incidents.
