Role of the National Ebola Trainin g and Educatio n Center • Through the 5 year project period and in collaboration with ASPR, CDC, and other stakeholders, the NETEC will: Create readiness metrics and – Conduc t peer revie w readiness assessments of – regional and stat e ETCs and assessment centers as requeste d by state heal th departments. 3

Role of NETEC (continued) – Create, conduct, and maintain a comprehensive suite o f onsite a nd online educatio n courses a nd helpful resources and tools . – Develo p a repository for educatio n resources , announcements, links to key information, and exercise templates available at the NETE C website . – Provide technic al assistance to public health departments and healthcare facilities. – Creat e a research infrastructur e across th e 10 regional ETCs. 4

Exercising a nd the Clinician • Clinicians have fu ll time jobs elsewhere ; thus: – Clinicians ar e generally unprepared for: • Disasters • Other infrequen t or unpredictable events – Som e issues requir e frequent reinforcement: • Safety, Infection Control – Exercises ar e par ticularly important f or: • Lo w probability/hig h consequence events • Clinicians are at ver y high risk 32

T he “Pathogens of Concern:” Whic h Migh t Warran t Exercising? • Ebola & other VHFs – Marburg, Lassa, several others • High Consequence Airborne Pathogens – SARS, MERS – HPAI, novel flu, pandemic flu – XDR-TB, Smallpox • High Consequence Droplet Pathogens – Nipah, Hendra, Plague, Monkeypox 33

Special Populations & Needs • Pediatrics – Com e i n al l s izes and stages of de velopment • Neonate, Infant, Toddler, Child, Adolescent – Many ar e c onfus ed or an xious – Many ar e combativ e or flailing – Many ar e incontinent – All toddlers hav e alter ed reality testing • Obstetrics • Psychiatric Patients • Patients with Physica l Disabilities 34

Thorny Issues i n Pediatrics • Parental presenc e & tele-parenting • Neonates born to infected mothers • Cohorting – I n isolatio n and i n quarantine – Parent/Child, Child/Siblings • Breastfeeding • Sedation in behaviora l management • Pla y (toys in the unit) 35
