Class Schedule: Asynchronous, On-line course
Semester and Year: Summer, Term I, 2025
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The healthcare system is uniquely challenged by large-scale disasters, which are on the increase in the United States and throughout the world. Every setting of healthcare, from hospitals to outpatient clinics may be affected by acute emergencies and disaster events. Therefore, as public health professionals, healthcare professionals, emergency managers, or other professionals in charge of ensuring a safe patient care environment, it is essential to become familiar with the current disaster management paradigm (mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery) as it pertains to the healthcare environment. This course is designed to provide students with disaster management capabilities that will have applicability in their current or future employment.

Course Overview
Over a 7-week term, students will explore the topic of Healthcare Disaster Management. Material is organized into 7 learning modules over the 7-week term period. Students will meet in small groups with the instructor (by zoom) a few days before the course begins to review the course site and to identify a healthcare organization as a potential collaborating partner in the preparation of the Disaster Plan- we will assist in finding a suitable organization. Students will work in small team on a plan chosen from a prepared list of potential disaster events. Team Captains will be identified (students may volunteer), preferably one that is needed by a healthcare organization. Dr. Gershon can facilitate the formation of teams. Students will work on a disaster specific healthcare plan. Students will be provided sample plans. Students will also complete and Intro form. and prepare and post (by the first day of classes) a short (2-3-min) video introducing themselves to their fellow classmates. Each week, students will complete various exercises that are designed to meet the course learning objectives and to help students develop various public health and disaster preparedness competencies. Further details of all assignments will be provided within the online course, but are summarized below.
Please note, the Instructor, Dr. Gershon, and the CAs work closely and individually with each student (by email, phone or zoom), reviewing and commenting on drafts of all key work products (case studies, Plan elements, presentations, etc.). These work products can be submitted for
review before final submission and grading. Therefore, students get extensive feedback before work products are graded. Exceptional course products are published in our online Student Disaster Journal.
