SGR Best Practices: 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Influenza Planning Manual with COOP Component
Authors: William E. (Bill) Peterson, M.A., CEM, FIFireE and John H. Teel, M.S., R.S.
Most local governments, businesses, schools, churches, and other entities remain dramatically unprepared for a significant pandemic flu outbreak among their employees and constituent groups. Very few organizations have taken the time to consider the ripple effects of a pandemic flu outbreak in their communities and the needs for a well-designed Continuity of Operations (COOP) Plan, despite the increasing probability of direct impact.
This Manual will help your organization understand the 2009 H1N1 flu patterns and dynamics, evaluate readiness to deal with a significant flu outbreak, and provide a step-by-step process and template for building an organization wide Pandemic Influenza Plan (PIP).
This SGR Best Practices Manual is intended to assist local government agencies (i.e., cities, counties, schools, municipal utility districts, etc.) serving populations under 100,000 in drafting a concise and useful PIP that includes a COOP component specific not only to moderate to severe epidemics of influenza, but also all-hazards risks.
This Manual also includes a Resources CD that provides an extensive array of additional documents, including electronic copies of the template needed to build your own PIP and departmental COOP worksheets.
