Disaster Recovery Plan

Develop a disaster recovery plan to reduce health disparities and improve access to community services after a disaster. Then develop and record a 10 slide presentation (please refer to the PowerPoint tutorial) of the plan with audio and speaker notes for the local system, city officials, and the disaster relief team.

Preparation

When disaster strikes, community members must be protected. A comprehensive recovery plan, guided by the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework, is essential to help ensure everyone’s safety. The unique needs of residents must be assessed to reduce health disparities and improve access to equitable services after a disaster. Recovery efforts depend on the appropriateness of the plan, the extent to which key stakeholders have been prepared, the quality of the trace-mapping, and the allocation of available resources. In a time of cost containment, when personnel and resources may be limited, the needs of residents must be weighed carefully against available resources. Disaster Recovery Plan

In this assessment, you will assume the role of the senior nurse at a regional hospital who has been assigned to develop a disaster recovery plan for the community using MAP-IT and trace-mapping, which you will present to city officials and the disaster relief team.

Review the full scenario and associated data in the Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF] Download Assessment 03 Supplement: Disaster Recover Plan [PDF]resource.

You are also encouraged to complete the Disaster Preparedness and Management activity. The information gained from completing this activity will help you succeed with the assessment as you think through key issues in disaster preparedness and management in the community or workplace. Completing activities is also a way to demonstrate engagement.

Begin thinking about:

Community needs.
Resources, personnel, budget, and community makeup.
People accountable for implementation of the disaster recovery plan.
Healthy People 2020 goals and 2030 objectives.
A timeline for the recovery effort. Disaster Recovery Plan

You may also wish to:

Review the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework, which you will use to guide the development of your plan:
- Mobilize collaborative partners.
- Assess community needs.
- Plan to lessen health disparities and improve access to services.
- Implement a plan to reach Healthy People 2020 goals or 2030 objectives.
- Track community progress.
Review the assessment instructions and scoring guide to ensure that you understand the work you will be asked to complete.

Note: Every 10 years, The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion release information on health indicators, public health issues, and current trends. At the end of 2020, Healthy People 2030 was released to provide information for the next 10 years. Healthy People 2030 provides the most updated content when it comes to prioritizing public health issues; however, there are historical contents that offer a better understanding of some topics. Disaster preparedness is addressed in Healthy People 2030, but a more robust understanding of MAP-IT, triage, and recovery efforts is found in Healthy People 2020. For this reason, you will find references to both Healthy People 2020 and Healthy People 2030 in this course. Disaster Recovery Plan

Medication Guide

By Academic Wizard Blog

For this Assignment, you will choose a vulnerable patient and develop a 2- to 3-page Medication Guide for them and their family. In your guide, you will consider their ages, birth-assigned sex, FDA approvals, and considerations for increased or decreased risk for side effects. You will choose the most appropriate medication for each of these individuals. Support your answers with evidence-based, peer-reviewed scholarly literature. APA style format title page, citations and references will apply.

Note: You will not set up this Medication Guide as a paragraph-formatted paper but, instead, as a creative, visually appealing guide.

Step 1: Choose one of the following vulnerable patients to create a Medication Guide for the patient (pick whichever scenario is of most interest to you!):

Patient 2:16-year-old male with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder, severe. He has seen a therapist weekly for the past 6 months and has had minimal change in symptoms. He has expressed thoughts of wanting to die.

Step 2: Create a Medication Guide for a patient. Please note, this should not be written in your classic “term paper” format. In your guide, you should provide the following specific instructions for the patient:

Describe the chosen classification of medications, from the classification category, for your chosen vulnerable patient. Explain your rationale for your choice.
Explain what dose you would start the chosen medication with and the frequency.
Discuss how the medication works to treat their symptoms.
Explain how long they should take the medication.
Discuss the typical or common side effects of the medication.
Explain the urgent or emergent considerations for the patient taking the medication.

The Medication Guide should also include:

Directions you would provide the patient on how to take the prescribed medication
Instructions on what the patient should do if a medication dose is missed
List of any other medications, over-the-counter medications, and/or supplements/herbals the patient should avoid while taking the prescribed medication
List of foods the patient should avoid when taking this medication
Date when the patient should return for follow-up visit with you
Discussion about the legal and ethical considerations for the medication being prescribed
Answers in consideration of Social Determinants of Health on how you would:
- Assist the patient who cannot not afford to pay financially for the medication you are recommending/prescribing; and/or
- Has difficulty with transportation that impacts their ability to present for regular appointments with you
Discuss how financial hardship and lack of transportation could relate to Social Determinants of Health, as well as why they are important considerations for you as a prescriber.
