1 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Integrating GIS Mapping into Radiation Emergency Response Planning to Maintain Situational Awareness in the 50 mile EPZ Surrounding Nuclear Power Plants National Radiological Emergency Preparedness Conference 2016 Annual Meeting and Training Charleston, South Carolina Patrick P. Rose, PhD Thursday, May 5 th, 205

2 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 About NACCHO: The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) represents the nation’s 2,800 local health departments (LHDs) and 162,000 employees. NACCHO’s mission: To be a leader, partner, catalyst, and voice for LHDs in order to ensure the conditions that promote health and equity, combat disease, and improve the quality and length of all lives. A Leader In Public Health 2

3 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Taking The Lead In Public Health Security 3

4 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Using GIS To Integrate Public Health Into Radiation Response Activities 4

5 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 A sense of capability and capacity to respond to a disaster enhances operations to ultimately save more lives. Should a radiological/nuclear (RN) incident occur in the United States, communities at the local level will be immediately overwhelmed and require broad support from all levels of government. Leverage Public Health To Manage Response Gaps 5

6 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Mind The Gap To Meet Response Needs Barbisch and Koenig (2006) Academic Emergency Medicine 6

7 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Recognize vulnerabilities and how to leverage cross-jurisdictional, state, and Federal resources and assets in order to fill in immediate gaps of response & recovery operations. Coordinating Activities Efficiently Saves Lives 7

17 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Radiological emergency preparedness is not a high priority many jurisdictions, with limited resources being the most common reason. A combination of lost funding and subsequent attrition of important public health positions further adds to the root causes of why radiological emergency planning is not a high priority; and reflected in the majority of these jurisdictions having zero to five staff of which are well versed in radiological emergencies.

29 @NACCHOalerts www.naccho.org 1100 17 th St NW Washington, DC 20036 Create and share maps and data that results in more informed analyses and better health outcomes. Provide visualizations of complex datasets (e.g., vulnerable populations) to assist with critical decision making. Identify trends without time-consuming analysis for a more informed response process. Assist with tracking issues in time and space to model projections for present day decision making.
