Disaster Cycle and Humans

“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?”
1910, Physics
by Mann and Twiss
So was the Yucatan meteor a disaster?
Maybe notDisasters and their cycles are societal
phenomena
and constructs

Disaster Cycle U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency
Mitigation – Minimizing disaster effects. Ex: building codes and zoning; vulnerability analyses; public education.
Preparedness - Planning how to respond. Ex: preparedness plans; emergency exercises/training; warning systems.
Response – Minimize disaster effects. Ex: search and rescue; emergency relief.
Recovery - Return community to new “normal”. Ex: temporary housing; grants; medical care, rebuilding.

Who We Are
13
“…the Secretaries of Health and Human Services and Defense, in coordination with the Secretaries of Veteran Affairs and Homeland Security, shall establish an academic Joint Program for Disaster Medicine and Public Health housed at a National Center for Disaster Medicine and Public Health at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. The Program shall lead Federal efforts to develop and propagate core curricula, training, and research related to medicine and public health in disasters. The Center will be an academic center of excellence…” HSPD-21, Paragraph 38

Strategy1. Workforce = Who: Characterize the disaster health workforce
2. Competencies = What: Lead the creation and promotion of national core competencies in disaster health
3. Curriculum = How: Contribute to the research, development, testing, and evaluation of core curricula for disaster health education and training
4. Continuous Learning Improvement = Why: Focus on continuous improvement through the application of adult learning best practices to enhance disaster health lifelong learning
5. National Resource = Goal: Become a trusted national resource for disaster health education and training

Competency
Core Competency• The foundation• Standardizes learning• Supports consistent
application• Translates knowledge
to practice
Competency• Combines/Synthesizes
– Knowledge– Skills– Attitudes
• Beyond the classroom• Measure performance
17
In U.S., all health profession education is competency based.
![Page 18: Coordinating National Health in Disasters… Through ......Core Competencies 5. Personal safety (or protective) measures 5.1 Health, safety, security risks 5.2 Risk reduction measures](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071412/6108cce3c59541764b4c90be/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Competency Examples
18
• Nurses: Patient assessment• Physicians: History and physical• Public Health: Surveillance
What are core competencies for disaster medicine and public health?
![Page 19: Coordinating National Health in Disasters… Through ......Core Competencies 5. Personal safety (or protective) measures 5.1 Health, safety, security risks 5.2 Risk reduction measures](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071412/6108cce3c59541764b4c90be/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Core Competencies for Disaster Medicine and Public Health
Span:• All health professions• Health effects on all disaster
impacted populations• All hazards
This is a broader scope than profession- specific competencies

Educational ThesisWhat you need to know in disaster health…
shapes Competencies…which shape Curricula…which shape Learning…
which saves lives and reduces suffering• WHO needs to know (workforce learners)• WHAT learners need to know (competencies)• HOW learners gain knowledge (curriculum)• APPLY competencies and knowledge to disasters• CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE (lifelong learning of
individuals & teams) 21

Research Questions You Can Use!
Ask disaster health workers:
1. What did you know that you needed or used?
2. What did you not know that you needed?3. How and when should this knowledge be
learned?
