T3: The ties that bind: Linking Facility/Agency, Local, Regional and State Plans Together Bone Student Center – Old Main The move towards health care coalition (HCC) based planning and response helps to improve the networking and collaboration of stakeholders before an incident occurs. In the new 5 year Hospital Preparedness Program and Public Health Emergency Preparedness grant cycle - hospitals, public health departments, emergency management agencies and emergency medical services must participate as members of the HCC. Each HCC’s Regional Medical Disaster Plan needs to address medical surge, evacuation, shelter in place, crisis standards of care and special populations such as pediatric and burn patients. Many of these planning components have already been addressed at the individual facility/ agency level, and at the state level. Emergency planners from all levels including the HCCs, need to identify a process to incorporate key components from already established plans from all levels into their current and future response plans. This panel discussion will review the current state health and medical plan (IDPH ESF-8 Plan) and its related annexes and share examples and lessons learned from various perspectives on how key components from these plans have been integrated into individual facility/agency, health care system, and regional and state planning.

T4: DuPage County Public Safety Preparedness Task Force Bone Student Center – Prairie South The DuPage County Public Safety Preparedness Task Force was created during the Ebola response to bring together public health, emergency management, fire/ems, police, and public safety, answering points to integrate public health and medical considerations in public safety response. The Task Force implemented 911 dispatch protocols that included screening questions and action steps for each of these agencies. Since the Ebola crisis, the Task Force continues to plan for and develop tools that better integrate each discipline in future public health or other events. We will share the membership, structure, and process for the Task Force, how the Task Force is engaged in a variety of planning & response scenario, and lessons learned. Karen Ayala, MPH
