DOH Office of Health Emergency Preparedness Webinars

The Department of Health (DOH) Office of Health Emergency Preparedness (OHEP) conducted a webinar on Sept. 7, 2018 providing an overview of emergency preparedness exercises. Click here for a recording of the webinar, entitled Exercises 101, and here for the slides. OHEP will be conducting another webinar, Writing an After-Action Report, on Sept. 21, 2018; click here for more information.

Both webinars will provide valuable information to help providers in their emergency preparedness activities and assist those who must comply with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Emergency Preparedness rule to consider participation in exercises and subsequent documentation. Providers will be able to participate in drills initiated by OHEP and the Regional Health Emergency Preparedness Coalitions later this fall.
