The site is organized around an alphabetical list of topics that may be of interest to MedSchool Emergency Planners. Each page of the site contains some basic information, lists of free resources, links for additional information, and some excerpts from key documents and reports. Where relevant, a "What's New" section highlights key topics – for instance, under the topic Mass Casualty Incidents/Medical Surge, there is a reference to the 2012 Eight Priority Capabilities; and there are references for Healthcare Coalitions. ??Depending on how they are configured, Medical Schools may have some unique planning considerations. ?Emergency preparedness?programs for?Medical Schools?generally?need to integrate the preparedness activities?that are typically done at?hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers / clinics, institutions of higher education, research centers, business operations, and organizations with complex information systems capability / security requirements.?Medical schools may also have to address preparedness in regard to bio-containment, particularly if there is a?Bio-safety?Level 1, 2, 3 or 4 laboratory on campus.?This would include response plans for exposures at the laboratory and in the field. Campuses often have equipment that contains radiological materials. The medical school may be part of a state higher education system,?or part of a consortium.?Medical schools may have unique issues to deal with such as a high vulnerability to different types of natural hazards, or the?presence of a prison hospital.??Construction projects on campus may require additional emergency planning, for instance, in coastal areas subject to hurricanes, activities may include an emergency preparedness orientation for contractors, requirements that their safety/emergency management staff complete some level of ICS training, and either integration into the school’s incident command, or establishment of a liaison relationship. With students on campus, active shooter preparedness programs that engage students and include them in exercises are required in some states and are a best practice. . . .Mike Mastrangelo directs institutional preparedness for the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston and is compiling the site. The site will include information based on learning from Hurricane Ike, and improvement plan elements that focus on response and recovery. While the site is in a rudimentary form now, it does contain some information that may be of use to emergency / continuity planning practitioners.
