Protecting Older Adults During Public Health Emergencies
“We have made progress in recent years toward strengthening the nation’s ability to protect the health of older adults during emergencies, and we continue to learn from each emergency response. Public health preparedness to help older adults and other vulnerable populations, such as children, pregnant women, and other individuals who have special needs in the event of a public health emergency, requires strong community engagement and planning before an emergency occurs. Each community has different planning and response needs based on its demographics. Responders need to know who the most vulnerable populations are and what support they need to mitigate the adverse health effects of emergency events and their aftermath, such as overburdened health systems, closure of pharmacies, and loss of health records. ”
(Statement of Dr. Richard Besser before the Senate Special Committee on Aging)
