Volunteers In Surge Functional Exercise

Healthcare facilities are tasked with projecting staffing needs over the next 5 days to prepare for a potential surge. Key considerations include the possibility of additional triage facilities, resource allocation, and the role of volunteers. Facilities must assess whether existing staff can manage supplemental care operations and support training needs for effective surge response. Questions arise about reimbursement for volunteer-staffed operations and requests for support from public health and MRC resources.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Volunteers In Surge Functional Exercise Part 3: “Injects/Homework #2”

  2. HCC has requested that healthcare facilities come up with a staffing projection for the next 5 days in order to forecast the inpatient/triage issue in anticipation of a county surge facility.

  3. Forecasted Staff Shortages for next 5 days (HCC) As of 1330 4/15/10 per Hospital Status Report *No Report

  4. HCC Support Request: • Question: Could your facility manage by setting up another hospital triage facility managed by your current staff? • Question: Would a county/city triage facility help you manage staffing issues better? If so, would you have supervisory staff that would be able to be a resource to an alternate care facility?

  5. HCC Support Request: • Question: Would (under current policy) you be able to charge/be reimbursed for services in an Alternate Care Facility staffed by volunteers in which your staff supported the operations? • Question: What training do you anticipate needing to administer “Just in time” in such a facility, or in your own facility to help support surge operations?

  6. Other items: • MRC volunteers have been contacting the coordinator to offer “overnight” and morning/weekend hours. • What requests for information, or resources do you have for the HCC? • For the County? • For Public Health? • For the MRC?

  7. MRC Plan • Number • Type • Location • JIT trainings: • Volunteer Deployment Team • Tracking issues addressed: • Volunteers • Patients • Staff
