背景信息

Emergency management (EM) is often taught in the context of community, provincial, national, and international emergencies. There is currently a gap in disaster and emergency management (DEM) education and training when transitioning from a generic and public emergency management context to a hospital and health care setting. Emergencies affect hospitals differently and require unique approaches to EM efforts. Hospitals and healthcare facilities also experience very specific emergencies of their own. This speaker series aims to address some of these topics through knowledge transferring and sharing and to inform professionals in the DEM field who are working in these settings and those who are transitioning to the healthcare field or studying DEM from a healthcare context.

活动目标

The key goals and objectives of the speaker series are to:

  • Discuss and exchange knowledge about emergency management from a hospital and healthcare context.
  • Facilitate the transition from public community DEM to EM in hospital and healthcare settings.
  • Explore various management and response structures that exist in hospital and healthcare settings and how they differ from traditional DEM structures.
  • Identify the main challenges associated with business continuity in hospitals and how to maintain operations as part of a community's critical infrastructure.
  • Identify and provide insights into practical job elements that are unique to hospitals and healthcare settings.
  • Discuss the standards needed and challenges surrounding accreditation of emergency management for hospitals.
  • Explore themes surrounding workflow and the inter-dependency of hospital departments.
  • Identify and discuss security challenges that are unique to hospital settings.
  • Learn ho to translate DEM principles to C-level executives and Board of Directors.
