Partnership for Healthcare and Emergency Management
What is the Partnership for Healthcare & Emergency Management?
The Partnership for Healthcare and Emergency Management is a community of academic, healthcare, and emergency management professionals, both public and private, providing a foundation for leadership excellence in the Healthcare and Emergency Management. It is a hub for the collaborative development of programs and solutions to enhance security, resilience, and continuity for the healthcare sector.
Evidence Based Practices
The partnership seeks to identify gaps in crisis management planning and proficiency, including recovering from simultaneous multi-incident crisis events.
As a partnership we seek to identify, share, and grow the evidence based practices in the healthcare institutional preparedness to bolster security, resilience, and continuity so that healthcare professionals can deliver patient care regardless of the challenges.
We offer applied research / technical paper projects, workforce development, collaborative events, and consultation that are collaboratively developed to address specific issues in healthcare preparedness and security.
