ARRTC Road Show

Program Description:
ARRTC Road Show is a 1-day course designed for key administrators and staff at all healthcare facilities in the state. Thirty (30) Road Shows will be offered at sites throughout the state of Alabama. The goal of this training is twofold: to bring ARRTC training onsite to healthcare facilities across the state, thereby allowing participation by more staff; and to invite regional neighbors/response partners to the training for the purposes of establishing and enhancing a common knowledge of the basics of disaster response for healthcare facilities. Key topics include: Hospital Incident Command System (HICS), National Incident Management System (NIMS), National Response Framework (NRF) and Independent Study (IS) 100, 200, 700, 800; Hazard Threat and Vulnerability Assessment: Healthcare Disaster Response Plans; Community and Regional Planning; Alabama Incident Management System (AIMS); and Hospital Mutual Aid Agreements. An additional 1/2 day will be scheduled for those facilities with additional training needs, and for those requesting assistance or additional training in completion of a hazard threat vulnerability assessment and disaster plan development.

ARRTC 2009 is designed for individuals charged with disaster response leadership for their organization including Hospital administration and staff (Nursing Directors, Training Directors, and Administrators) Community Health Center (CHC) administrators and staff, EMS, EMA, Public health, Nursing Home Administration, and Mental health.
