= Continuing Education Credits
Date: Wednesday, January 25, 2012
Time: 2:00 - 3:00 pm (Eastern Time)
Presenter(s):
Christa-Marie Singleton, MD, MPH
Senior Medical Advisor

Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response

Overview:
One of the nation's key preparedness challenges has been determining appropriate state and local public health preparedness priorities. In March 2011 CDC released the Public Health Preparedness Capabilities: National Standards for State and Local Planning to serve as national public health preparedness standards that can support public health, medical, and mental/behavioral health systems during emergency incidents. Clinicians have a vital role in helping public health departments assure the public’s health during emergency incidents. During this COCA conference call, a CDC subject matter expert will provide an overview of this National Standards document and highlight opportunities for clinician engagement.
Objectives:
At the conclusion of the session, the participant will be able to accomplish the following:
- Understand CDC’s capability-based methodology for determining priorities for state/local public health preparedness and response
- Describe types of current public health preparedness activities being considered between public health departments and clinical providers
- Identify opportunities for clinicians to develop and support a shared engagement of public health preparedness capabilities at the state or local level
