Description
The session will focus on understanding emergency management and what home care providers need to know to be prepared. Due to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency of the past two years, regulatory changes have been introduced that impact your agency's Comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Plan (CEMP). Lisa McClammy, Senior Clinical Education Consultant with MAC Legacy, will go over the requirements and implementation of your CEMP, which includes policies and procedures, risk assessments, communication plans, training and testing, drills, and documentation of your activities. As part of the discussion, we will also explore the "all-hazards" approach to risk assessment as it relates to emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) and recommended best practices in the interpretive guidelines.
