1. Emergency Response Planning
The planning is more important than the plan

2. Consider… Risk Hazard Vulnerability:
for example: special needs such as chronic disease, visual or hearing impairments, mental illness, mobility impairments, Hospitalized, caregivers of homebound, children, language impairments, incarcerated

3. R-Naught.. can be thought of as the number of cases one case generates on average over the course of its infectious period, in an otherwise uninfected population.
Values of R0 of well-known infectious diseases[1]
Disease
Transmission R0
Measles
Airborne
12–18
Diphtheria
Saliva
6–7
Smallpox
Airborne droplet
5–7
Polio
Fecal-oral route
Rubella
Mumps
4–7
HIV/AIDS
Sexual contact
2–5
Pertussis
5.5[2]
SARS
2–5[3]
Influenza (1918 pandemic strain)
2–3[4]
Ebola (2014 Ebola outbreak)
Bodily fluids

For every person who gets sick, how likely are they to infect others?

4. Figure…
If the R-Naught was 20, and the identified infected students were contained in the science wing, of CHS, which represents ¼ of the student population (total is 1453) How many people would these student be likely to transmit the disease, and how long would it take to infect the entire community? (43,000) Support your answer.

5. Plan
Reduce exposure
Reduce susceptibility
Strength resilency

6. SMART GOALS S: specific How tasks are to be performed
M: Measurable Good goals describe measurable signs of progress
A: Attainable Good goals are within our ability to achieve
R: Realistic Good goals are based upon realistic expectations
T: Time-based Good goals have a time schedule for completion

7. Your plans must answer….in each category
What will be performed?
Who will perform?
How will it be performed?
When will it be performed?
Where will it be performed?

8. Problem
Cleveland, TN water supply has been contaminated by a bio-terrorist agent. You have exactly 24 hours to respond to the crisis, and treat the community with medications that will prevent the agent from progressing. You must consider the following things, and be specific with a plan:
Communication
Transportation
Facilities/Parking
Security
Food
Supplies
Volunteers including medical staff
Bio-hazardous waste disposal
Method of distribution
Cost
Assume that you are on a committee that will plan for a response to the above problem ahead of time

9. Follow the outline
Turn in today
We will discuss on the day we return
