Community Assets and Disaster Management
Write a 5-7 paged paper (excluding the title page and references). Your paper must include an introduction, the body in which all items below are addressed and references cited, a well-defined conclusion, and reference page. You will need to write clearly and concisely to address all items in 5 pages. Your paper must include at least 5 scholarly references (no Wikipedia!). References should be scholarly peer reviewed journal articles, official reports or from other reading resources. Avoid using secondary sources like non-scholarly websites or textbooks.
One of the major challenges during the initial phase of a disaster is integrating the public health and emergency management assets. Your assignment is to assess how your community emergency medical services organizations, medical treatment facilities (i.e., hospitals, clinics, stand-alone ERs), and public health assets plan to work together to mitigate the loss of life during a disaster scenario. Have the new facilities of stand-alone ERs and urgency care centers been incorporated into your community’s overall surge capacity?
Your paper should address the following:
Identify a potential disaster likely to impact your community or region.
Evaluate available trauma assets, emergency management services, hospitals, clinics, etc.
Your community’s potential level of preparedness.
The hospital and other parts of the healthcare systems role in responding to a disaster.
Your paper (and all assignments) must follow American Psychological Association (APA) guidelines for references and bibliographic citation. Refer to the APA Publication Manual (7th ed.). Other APA websites are available through the Library.
