Develop a disaster recovery plan to reduce health disparities and improve access
Develop a disaster recovery plan to reduce health disparities and improve access to community services after a disaster. Then develop and record a 10–12 slide presentation (please refer to the PowerPoint tutorial) of the plan with audio and speaker notes for the local system, city officials, and the disaster relief team.
Dr. Luisa Gonzalez, Tall Oaks Medical Center Administrator, has asked you to present a
compelling case to community stakeholders for the proposed disaster recovery plan. She
requests you use the MAP-IT model, which is a step-by-step, structured plan that can be
developed by a coalition that is tailored to a specific community’s needs.
The MAP-IT model involves all stakeholders, making for a widely-supported and community-
owned effort. It assesses assets as well as needs and looks for ways to use them.
The five steps of the MAP-IT model are:
1. Mobilize individuals and organizations that care about the health of your community into
a coalition.
2. Assess the areas of greatest need in your community, as well as the resources and
other strengths that you can tap into to address those areas.
3. Plan your approach: start with a vision of where you want to be as a community; then
add strategies and action steps to help you achieve that vision.
4. Implement your plan using concrete action steps that can be monitored and will make a
difference.
5. Track your progress over time.
In addition to using the MAP-IT model, work up an approach supported by Healthy People 2020
and put it all into a PowerPoint. You can save the PowerPoint deck and the audio of its
accompanying presentation at the public library so that the public can access it and see that
you’re serious. By doing this, you can create a prototype for other local communities near this one.
Develop a disaster recovery plan for the community that will reduce health disparities and improve access to services after a disaster.
Assess community needs.
Consider resources, personnel, budget, and community makeup.
Identify the people accountable for implementation of the plan and describe their roles.
Focus on specific Healthy People 2020 goals and 2030 objectives.
Include a timeline for the recovery effort.
Apply the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework to guide the development of your plan:
Mobilize collaborative partners.
Assess community needs.
Use the demographic data and specifics related to the disaster to identify the needs of the community and develop a recovery plan. Consider physical, emotional, cultural, and financial needs of the entire community.
Include in your plan the equitable allocation of services for the diverse community.
Apply the triage classification to provide a rationale for those who may have been injured during the train derailment. Provide support for your position.
Include in your plan contact tracing of the homeless, disabled, displaced community members, migrant workers, and those who have hearing impairment or English as a second language in the event of severe tornadoes.
Plan to reduce health disparities and improve access to services.
Implement a plan to reach Healthy People 2020 goals and 2030 objectives.
Track and trace-map community progress.
Use the CDC’s Contract Tracing Resources for Health Departments as a template to create your contact tracing.
Describe the plan for contact tracing during the disaster and recovery phase.
Develop a slide presentation of your disaster recovery plan with an audio recording of you presenting your assessment of the scenario and associated data in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF]resource for city officials and the disaster relief team. Be sure to also include speaker notes.
