MANAGING RESPONSES TO EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES: PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
The cross-disciplinary educational series Managing Response to Emerging Infectious Diseases:Past, Present, Future, focused on planning for and responding to emerging and re-emerging infectious disease threats, with the overarching goal of raising awareness of roles across disciplines. The target audience for this training series included the five core public health and healthcare disciplines (community health centers, emergency medical services, long term care facilities, hospitals, and public health).
The series was delivered from July through September, 2016 and consisted of three webinars, followed by the in-person Live Session. The live session was held three times: in Burlington on September 13, 2016, in Easton on September 20, 2016, and in Holyoke on September 30, 2016. The final report summarizes the participant feedback gathered in the live sessions. Links to the three webinar archives are listed below, along with the videos recorded at the live sessions.
