Pandemic Influenza

NJHA's Quality Institute and Emergency Preparedness departments are working together to provide hospitals with a compilation of resources for preparedness patient care in the event of a global disease outbreak of influenza. This could include the H5N1 avian influenza virus. Look here for key information, tools, links and guidelines covering a variety of issues involving avian and pandemic flu.

Information

Planning Today For a Pandemic Tomorrow - (NJHA Publication Series)

Through the use of a detailed assessment and planning tool, hospitals can review existing policies and procedures, identify gaps, adopt new policies and procedures and generate a pandemic influenza plan that will facilitate a more effective response during a crisis. This tool will assist hospitals in developing and adopting new policies that will be required to protect employees, patients and the hospital staff itself. The planning and assessment tool identifies critical elements within each module related to hospital operations during an emergency situation. In addition, the tool provides a variety of sample policies and procedures that facilities may elect to use in their planning process.
  • Supported by a grant from Roche Pharmaceuticals
When completed, there will be 10 modules in Planning Today for a Pandemic Tomorrow available for browsing and download. The following is a table of contents of available modules. The policies and procedures included here do not reflect standard of care.
