tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Estimated Amount of Award:
$200,000 to $ 750,000 (contingent on
the availability of funding).
Project Period: September 30, 2013 to
March 31, 2015.
Summary and Project Overview
The Office of Emergency Management
(OEM) within the Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Preparedness and
Response (ASPR) is responsible for
developing operational plans to ensure
the preparedness of the Office, the
Department, the Federal Government
and the public to respond to and recover
from domestic and international public
health and medical threats and
emergencies. OEM is also responsible
for ensuring that ASPR has the systems,
logistical support, and procedures
necessary to coordinate the
Department’s operational response to
acts of terrorism and other public health
and medical threats and emergencies.
OEM is responsible for leading
Emergency Support Function #8 (ESF
#8), Public Health and Medical Services,
under the National Response
Framework and the Health and Social
Services (H&SS) Recovery Support
Function (RSF) under the National
Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF),
released in September 2011.
In the field of disaster and emergency
management, post-disaster recovery has
played an important, although often
lower profile role. When it is addressed,
it frequently references the restoration
of previously extant physical or
economic systems within a community,
with a focus on ‘‘bricks and mortar’’
infrastructure reconstitution (e.g. roads,
bridges, housing stock, commercial

structures, etc) and/or business and
commercial recovery.i Oftentimes
absent from consideration is the critical
importance of health, and the public
health, medical and social services and
underlying determinants of health that
are key to supporting overall recovery.ii
Anecdotal evidence from recent
disasters and other scientific
evidence iii iv v suggest that there is not a
broad understanding of the recovery
activities that most significantly impact
the health of individuals of populations.
This grant will support the development
and distribution of a set of evidencebased recommendations that inform
recovery efforts in affected communities
and the work of both emergency
managers and health professionals. The
recommendations will be informed by
input from stakeholders and subject
matters experts.
Pursuant to the National Health
Security Strategy (NHSS) objective 8.3
and, specifically, sub-objective 8.3.1,
this grant will generally seek ‘‘to
continuously improve recovery efforts,
[through] data elements assess[ing]
recovery progress, quality, and
outcomes.’’ vi This grant also supports
HHS Strategic Plan Objective 3F: Protect
Americans’ health and safety during
emergencies, and foster resilience in
response to emergencies.
Justification
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) is a
nonprofit organization and is part of the
National Academy of Sciences. IOM
undertakes studies that may be specific
mandates from Congress or requested by
federal agencies and independent
organizations.
The IOM has an established Forum on
Medical and Public Health Preparedness
for Catastrophic Events. The Forum held
a panel on Long-term Recovery of the
Healthcare Service Delivery
Infrastructure in February 2012 during
the 2012 Public Health Preparedness
Summit in Anaheim, CA. The Forum’s
purpose is to foster dialogue among
stakeholders, identify opportunities for
public/private collaboration, and
identify and address issues relevant to
public health and medical
preparedness.
The IOM is part of the National
Academies, which also has an
established Disasters Roundtable. The
Disasters Roundtable holds workshops
three times per year on topics often
relevant to recovery partners. The IOM
is uniquely positioned to be able to not
only identify relevant partners and
stakeholders but also garner their
participation in the proposed activities
because of their existing structures and
established reputation.
