Topic: Emergency Preparedness and Response

Public health professionals are acutely aware that a public health emergency could occur on any day, at any time, and they must be prepared to respond quickly and appropriately to prevent further harm to the public.

Review the “Stories From the Field” from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s State and Local Readiness site, and choose a story to review.

Using the “ESF #8: Public Health and Medical Services” document, discuss the core capabilities that were used to respond to the emergency.

Be sure to include a list of credible references to support your response.
