EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS:

Lessons Learned by Behavioral Healthcare Organizations That Have Survived Disasters

A two-hour training on compact disc

Did you ever think this could happen to you?  Phones, computers, and power are all out simultaneously. And the water is rising.  A hostage situation is occurring in your lobby. The H1N1 flu has hit your staff and patients. These – and a wide range of other types of natural and man-made disasters – have happened to your behavioral healthcare colleagues.  Jump-start the emergency operations plan that The Joint Commission requires every accredited hospital and residential treatment program to have. Hear real-life stories from behavioral healthcare organization leaders – and the unexpected lessons learned.  Their practical advice can help you get ahead of the curve so that you – and your community – are fully prepared to address the needs of your patients with psychiatric and addictive disorders when disaster hits.  Get ideas to help you have the right plans in place to speed your return to business as usual. Colleagues from across the country will share what they have learned – through personal experience – about the challenges of planning for, living through, and recovering from disasters of all types.  Learn what FEMA training can do for you and get examples of lessons learned from dealing with H1N1, fires, floods, hurricanes, and other challenging scenarios.
