Semester Credit Hour(s) 3
This course explores the principles of disaster planning for hospitals and other health care facilities. Students consider the various types of disasters that must be planned for and learn the six primary phases of disaster response. This course then builds upon that basic understanding and leads students to consider how health care facilities can best plan for disasters. In addition to the broad considerations of both internal and external planning, the specifics of developing a documented disaster plan are demonstrated.
