Publisher: BMJ Books Number Of Pages: 192 Publication Date: 2001-08-15 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0727915428 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780727915429 Binding: Paperback Product De******ion: The Manchester Triage System (MTS) is the most widely used triage system in the UK, Europe and Australia, with tens of millions of patients being processed through hospital emergency departments.Emergency Triage is the core **** for the MTS which utilises a risk averse system of prioritisation for patients in all unscheduled care settings, and as such it is an essential **** for all emergency department staff using the MTS, in particular triage nurses themselves.The second edition has been revised throughout and takes in the changes in practice introduced into MTS since the book was first published. These include:Redesigned and expanded flow chartsAdditional charts for allergy and palpitationsNew practices - such as the possibility of revascularisation for patients with strokeNew discriminators, for example acute neurological deficit and significant respiratory historyRedefinition of existing discriminatorsAlso new to this edition is the incorporation of sections on the use of the risk averse system in telephone triage, in settings where ‘streaming’ takes place and as an early warning score for patients in all unscheduled care settings. The tone of this edition reflects the more up to date, modified approach to triage while retaining the principles of clinical prioritisation, which in the authors’ words “remains a central plank of clinical risk management in emergency care”.Emergency Triage is an essential handbook for all clinicians involved in unscheduled care settings such as emergency care, walk in centres, minor injury units, primary care out of hours services.[size=21]DownloadRapidShare: Easy FilehostingORRapidShare: Easy Filehosting [/size]
 Disasters and Public Health: Planning and Response By Bruce ClementsPublisher: Butterworth-Heinemann Number Of Pages: 344 Publication Date: 2009-04-08 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1856176126 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781856176125 Product De******ion: From the San Diego wildfires to multi-drug-resistant strains of bacteria, communities are facing an ever-growing list of potential disasters. Some events, like pandemic flu or anthrax attacks, are public health emergencies first and foremost. Hurricane Katrina taught us, however, that lack of planning for the frail, elderly, and impoverished population can turn a natural disaster into a healthcare nightmare and lead to needless death and suffering. Emergency managers and public health professionals must integrate their prevention and response efforts to serve their communities most effectively. The structure of each chapter offers an innovative approach to organizing key information: 1. Case Study or Historical Example 2. Disaster-specific Terms Defined 3. Disaster De******ion 4. Health Threat (Morbidity and Mortality) 5. Prevention 6. Immediate Actions 7. Recovery or Managing the Aftermath 8. Summary Disasters and Public Health is a crucial tool in planning for and responding to the health impact of any crisis situation. Bruce Clements served over 20 years in the U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard as a Public Health Officer and a Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Warfare Defense Instructor, a Hazardous Materials Specialist with an Urban Search and Rescue Team, and as a Safety Officer with a Disaster Medical Assistance Team. He also served as the Public Health Preparedness Director of Missouri in 2006, when the state experienced a record number of disaster declarations. Throughout his years of experience, he frequently needed to track down a variety of references to quickly understand what was needed for an effective public health response in various situations. He has researched and compiled this information on the health impact of a wide range of disasters into one quick reference. Emergency managers can also no longer afford to be surprised by the next crisis that erupts. This book guides planners in both disciplines in preventing tragedies by most effectively preparing and responding when disaster strikes. * Prevent or respond to disasters from terrorism to pandemic flu * Examine the critical intersection of emergency management and public health * Benefit from the author's years of experience in emergency response DOWNLOADDownload - ifile.itTools and Methods for Estimating Populations at Risk from Natural Disasters and Complex Humanitarian Crises By Methodologies, and Technologies to Estimate Subnational Populations at Risk Committee on the Effective Use of Data, National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press Number Of Pages: 264 Publication Date: 2007-05-30 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0309103541 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780309103541 Binding: Paperback DOWNLOADDownload - ifile.itOR RapidShare: 1-CLICK *** hosting - Easy FilehostingOR Tools_and_Methods_for_Estimating_Populations_at_Ri sk_from_Natural_Disasters.pdf - FileFactoryPandemic Influenza: Emergency Planning and Community Preparedness By Jeffrey R.

Dr. Ryan has assembled some of the best experts in the field to guide you in understanding the threat of pandemic influenza and how it can affect you and the people you are responsible for. ...” From the foreword by Lynn A. Slepski, Captain, United States Public Health ServiceNo one is immune to the potential devastation of a mass pandemic influenza outbreak. Yet despite recent small-scale outbreaks and dire warnings from the World Health Organization that such an event is imminent and overdue, our preparedness continues to lag. Part of the problem is that while a national plan is important, all the real action must occur at the local level. Triage, care, and containment, along with maintenance of the infrastructure, are functions that must be carried out by local planners and responders. Pandemic Influenza: Emergency Planning and Community Preparedness introduces readers to the critical global and domestic issues regarding a potential pandemic. Featuring the contributions of leading experts, this volume arms planners and responders with an understanding of outbreak containment and response planning and provides an analysis of our present capabilities and potential weaknesses. The first section reviews the history of pandemics and discusses the deadly 1918 Spanish flu. The middle chapters examine the biology of the virus and the clinical aspects of influenza, with special attention given to Avian Influenza. The final chapters examine international and federal programs and discuss response at the local level, including service continuation planning and fatality management. Public health and emergency preparedness professionals, as well as policy makers at all levels will find a wealth of information to help them create a plan and allocate the proper resources to mitigate the devastation of a pandemic influenza.

Disaster Management Handbook
(Public Administration and Public Policy)
By Jack Pinkowski
Publisher: CRC
Number Of Pages: 624
Publication Date: 2008-01-22
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1420058622
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781420058628
Binding: Hardcover
Product De******ion:
Record breaking hurricane seasons, tornados, tsunamis, earthquakes, and intentional acts of mass-casualty violence, give lie to the delusion that disasters are the anomaly and not the norm. Disaster management is rooted in the fundamental belief that we can protect ourselves. Even if we cannot control all the causes, we can prepare and respond. We can craft constructive, workable policy that will contribute to the prevention of enormous financial impact, destruction of the environment, and needless loss of life.
Integrating scholarly articles from international experts and first hand accounts from the practitioner community, Disaster Management Handbook presents an analytical critique of the interrelated, multidisciplinary issues of preparedness, response, and recovery in anticipating and rebuilding from disasters. Beginning with an introduction to the theoretical constructs and conceptual foundations of disaster management, the book reviews the relationship of modern development to disaster vulnerability, the politics of disaster management, leadership, and the role of agency coordination. The second and third sections examine case studies and lessons learned through natural disasters in North America and around the world. They compare and contrast the efficacy of different management strategies from national, provincial, and local governments, as well as non-governmental agencies.
Taking a narrower scope, the fourth section focuses on emergency personnel and the methods and issues faced in on-the-scene response and preparation. It also considers the special needs of hospitals and the effective use of the media. Contributions in the final two sections present strategies for limiting and ameliorating the psychological impact of disaster on victims and personnel, and look forward to how we can be better prepared in the future and rebuild stronger, more resilient communities.

The First 72 Hours: A Community Approach to Disaster Preparedness
By Margaret R. O'Leary
Publisher: iUniverse, Inc.
Number Of Pages: 582
Publication Date: 2004-05-13
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0595310842
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780595310845
Binding: Paperback
Product De******ion:
The First 72 Hours is the seminal anthology of the perspectives of public and private sector leaders who came together after September 11, 2001 to design more disaster-resilient communities. Under the umbrella of the Suburban Emergency Management Project, these leaders learned from national experts and one another that all disasters are intensely local at first and that most communities are "on their own" immediately following disaster impact—often for as long as 72 hours. This new awareness mandated updating strategies to improve disaster preparedness, particularly in light of the threat of terrorism.
A wide gamut of perspectives are laid out in the book, including those of doctors and hospitals, city managers, police officers, firefighters, paramedics, American Red Cross volunteers, hospital accreditors, the media, business managers, utility companies, emergency managers, public health officials, academics, and elected public officials. In their own words, these individuals convey the importance of learning how to map the myriad organizations involved in local disaster preparedness and response; analyzing, refining and rehearsing local disaster roles; and getting to know individual personalities when in specific roles.
The First 72 Hours is an essential resource for professionals and private citizens alike who want to know what kinds of questions must be asked and answered to better prepare their communities to survive future disaster.
“There's a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.”—Hamlet V, II,William Shakespeare

Handbook of Disaster and Emergency Policies and Institutions
By John Handmer
Publisher: Earthscan Publications Ltd.
Number Of Pages: 160
Publication Date: 2007-10
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1844073599
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781844073597
Binding: Hardcover
Product De******ion:
From the Asian tsunami to hurricanes Katrina and Rita to the earthquake in Pakistan, disasters both natural and human-induced are leading to spiraling costs in terms of human lives, the destruction of homes, businesses, public buildings, and infrastructure, and the resulting financial and human crises that inevitably follow in the wake of such catastrophes. Yet the failures in planning for--and responding to--such disasters can often be traced to poor disaster policies that are unsuited to the emerging scales of the problems they confront and the lack of institutional capacity to manage disasters when they happen.
This handbook, written by two top authorities on disaster policy and management, overcomes this mismatch and guides the examination and development of a policy and institutional framework and associated strategies. In particular, for the first time it brings together into a coherent framework the insights of public policy, institutional design, and emergency and disaster management, stressing the cognate nature of policy and institutional challenges between disasters and sustainability. This is indispensable reading for all disaster planners, policymakers, and managers across the world.

Helping Children Cope With Disaster
By FEMA and Red Cross
Publisher: FEMA and Red Cross
Number Of Pages: 12
Publication Date: 2005
Helping Children Cope with Disaster
Children can feel very frightened during a disaster and afterwards some children will show temporary changes of behavior. For most children these changes will be mild, not last long, and diminish with time. However, reminders of what happened could cause upsetting feelings to return and behavior changes to emerge again. Watching scenes of the disaster on television can be distressing for children, especially for younger children. Younger children may return to bed-wetting, have difficulty sleeping, and not want to be separated from their caregivers. Older children may show more anger than usual, find concentrating at school harder, and want to spend more time alone than usual. Some children are more vulnerable, and their reactions can be more severe and last for a longer period of time.

This book addresses all issues relevant to error prevention and safe practice in the acute and emergency health-care setting. It begins with the basic principles of human behavior and decision making and then partitions into three sections where the individual, the team, and the organizational influences within the health-care system are discussed in greater depth.
Case reports and proven strategies help to ground psychological theory in daily practice. This book has emerged from a long-standing cooperation between clinicians and psychologists. Blending the strengths of both professions into a readily accessible **** has created a book which will hopefully help both physicians and non-physicians to better understand the principles of human behavior and decision making in critical situations and in turn enable them to provide safer treatment.
Unsuspected medical crisis and emergency situations may be managed more effectively and an increased awareness of contributing factors may help to avoid errors from the outset.

Product De******ion:
The health professionals are continually developing effective techniques of burns and mass casualty management. In parallel, fire prevention and fire-fighting techniques have developed considerably in most communities. It is therefore surprising that, while aiming at the same ************************ive, the two sectors have rarely come together. The Mediterranean Burns Club is a professional organization that brings together persons concerned with burns therapy and with fire safety in all forms. Identified by the United Nations as a premier scientific body in its field within the programme of the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction, it initiated the first international gathering of specialists in burns as a surgical, clinical problem, and of counterparts dealing with fires as a social, disaster problem. This novel approach and symbiosis proved timely and succesful. This, the resulting book, reflects the commitment of all concerned to the reduction of fire disasters and the improvement of burns therapy.
