Emergency medical service and non-emergent (medical) transport organizations pandemic influenza planning checklist
March 1, 2006 Version 2.1 ; Steps that Emergency Medical Services and non-emergent transport organizations can take to prepare for pandemic influenza. ; Planning for pandemic influenza is critical for ensuring a sustainable health care response. The Department of Health and ; Human Services (HHS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have developed the following checklist ; to help emergency medical services (EMS) and non-emergent (medical) transport organizations assess and improve their preparedness ; for responding to pandemic influenza. EMS organizations will be involved in the transport of acutely ill patients with known or suspected pandemic influenza to emergency departments; some of these patients might require mechanical ventilation for life support and/or other lifesaving interventions. Non-emergent (medical) transport organizations will be called upon to transport recovering pandemic influenza patients to their home, residential care facility, or possibly to alternate care sites set up by state or local health departments. This checklist ; is modeled after one included in the HHS Pandemic Influenza Plan (www.hhs.gov/pandemicflu/plan/sup3.html#app2). The list is comprehensive but not complete; each organization will have unique and unanticipated concerns that also will need to be addressed as part of a pandemic planning exercise. Also, some items on the checklist might not be applicable to all organizations. Collaborations among hospital, public health and public safety personnel are encouraged for the overall safety and care of the public. Further information can be found at www.pandemicflu.gov. ; This checklist identifies key areas for pandemic influenza planning. EMS and non-emergent (medical) transport organizations can use this tool to self-assess and identify the strengths and weakness of current planning. Links to websites with information are provided throughout the document. However, actively seeking information that is available locally or at the state level will be necessary to complete the development of the plan. Also, for some elements of the plan (e.g., education and training programs), information may not be immediately available and monitoring of selected websites for new and updated information will be necessary ; emschecklist.pdf
