2. 2Coordination with HMDOs

3. 3 Toolkit Presentations Instructions for Use Toolkit Presentations are intended to be a companion to the Hospital Implementation Guide and should not be used in isolation. The Presentations are intended to serve as a starting point for the facilitator. The facilitator should thoroughly review the Presentation prior to use in Implementation Team, CRAG or Subcommittee meetings and customize the Presentation to meet the unique needs of the meeting participants. Pay particular to attention to the information provided in brackets ([ ]), which must be completed by the facilitator prior to use. Included in the Notes section of each slide are the following types of information: Slide Type, which indicates whether the slide is for information or discussion, serves as a placeholder, or is some combination thereof Planning Guide Section(s), which will direct the facilitator to the corresponding sections of the Planning Guide and Hospital Implementation Guide for further information Special Instructions, which provides directions for the facilitator to customize the slide for the intended audience Speakers Notes, which provides more detailed information to supplement the material on the slide Refer to the Hospital Implementation Guide for further guidance and helpful hints on effectively completing the process described in the Planning Guide.

4. 4Coordination with HMDOs CRAG Members [Enter names and departments of each CRAG member]

5. 5Coordination with HMDOs Add slides from Altered Standards Overview and/or Chapter 1 presentation, as needed, to re-introduce the CRAG to the concept of altered standards and critical resource shortage response planning, especially if new members are involved.

6. 6Coordination with HMDOs Introduction

7. 7Coordination with HMDOs Chapter Overview Identify HMDOs for coordination Create a communication strategy with other HMDOs Understand how HMDOs responses to the CRSE will impact other HMDOs Engage in discussions regarding changes to scope of services Expansion of scope Reduction of scope Discuss cooperative initiatives with other HMDOs Establish parameters regarding essential documentation

8. 8Coordination with HMDOs Hospital(s) in Planning Unit Other HMDOs Coordination During Normal Times

9. 9Coordination with HMDOs Hospital(s) in Planning Unit Other HMDOs Patient Care in CRSE Without Coordinated Planning Smaller degree of overlap Each will retreat into its own silo and implement its own disaster plan Non-Productive Interaction

10. 10Coordination with HMDOs Hospital(s) in Planning Unit Other HMDOs Patient Care in CRSE With Coordinated Planning Higher degree of overlap Both entities will rely on each other to do more Productive Interaction

11. 11Coordination with HMDOs Hospital(s) in Planning Unit Other HMDOs Patient Care in CRSE With Coordinated Planning What exactly does this coordination look like during a CRSE?

12. 12Coordination with HMDOs Decisions for the Planning Unit With which HMDOs are we going to coordinate? How are we going to coordinate with the selected HMDOs? Will we expect these HMDOs to change their scope of services to support our response to the CRSE? If so, how? Are there any cooperative initiatives that we want to pursue with other HMDOs? What problems, if any, do we see with essential documentation between the hospital(s) in the Planning Unit and HMDOs?

13. 13Coordination with HMDOs Selecting HMDOs for Coordination

14. 14Coordination with HMDOs Selecting HMDOs for Coordination There are a vast number of other HMDOs in the [Planning Unit] It will be difficult to coordinate with each type of HMDO It will be almost impossible to coordinate with individual HMDOs (e.g., each EMS provider) The CRAG will have to prioritize types of HMDOs for coordination efforts

15. 15Coordination with HMDOs Brainstorm a List of Other HMDOs EMS Providers Community Physicians Ambulatory Surgery Centers Home Health Assisted Living Long Term Care Dialysis Facilities Community Health Centers FQHCs Hospice Outpatient Lab Infusion Centers Outpatient Imaging Rehabilitation Hospitals Alternate Care Facilities Other Acute Care Facilities Pharmacy

16. 16Coordination with HMDOs Prioritize the HMDOs for Coordination Which HMDOs may be able to help protect the hospital(s) in the Planning Unit from being overwhelmed during a CRSE by providing certain types of care or early triage? Which HMDOs may pose a risk to hospital(s) in the Planning Unit during a CRSE because they have the potential to transfer large numbers of patients to the hospital(s)?
