The Centers for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) has a great training course called Hospital Emergency Response Team (HERT), they also offer a train the trainer session.  They include Decontamination, and when you do the train the trainer course they give you all their slide decks.  I just went last month, it is a week-long training in Alabama, travel expenses, lodging, and food are paid for by the federal government.  So worth it!

Are there good training videos or webinars for this that anyone has found or is using? Besides the CDC one from 2014?

 

 

Hello,

 

For those healthcare organizations that perform decon:

 

Are you doing any different/special onboarding for the staff who will be performing the decon?  For example, medical monitoring prior to donning PPE (vital signs, skin evaluation, mental status, medical history, ect).

 

If so, who is performing this medical monitoring in your facility?

 

Any you doing any post-entry medical monitoring?  For example, vital signs, oral rehydration, IV hydration.

 

If so, who is performing this medical monitoring in your facility?

 

Is your facility utilizing a Hazmat Medical Monitoring form? 

 

If so, what does your form look like?

 

Thank you for your consideration!
