A critical component of successful public health emergency responses is the availability of appropriate numbers of personnel with emergency response expertise. To achieve this, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focused on strengthening training, personnel database systems, and responder outreach. To ensure availability of well-trained public health emergency responders, CDC and external partners coordinated training, planning, exercise, and evaluation activities; established the School of Preparedness and Emergency Response; and implemented Responder Training Tiers for response roles with defined functional competencies. For personnel information, CDC developed interoperable databases to streamline the search for specific staff expertise for a response. To improve responder outreach, CDC developed various mechanisms to efficiently identify and assign potential responders to responses. These measures work together to sustain a qualified workforce for public health emergencies, and may be helpful to other public health agencies for staffing and training of their response workforce.

为疾病预防控制中心公共卫生工作人员做好应急准备

成功的公共卫生应急响应的关键要素是提供适当数量的具有应急响应专业知识的人员。为了实现这一目标,美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)着重于加强培训,人员数据库系统和响应者扩展。为确保有训练有素的公共卫生应急人员,疾病预防控制中心和外部合作伙伴协调培训,规划,演练和评估活动;成立了准备与紧急反应学院;并针对具有定义功能能力的响应角色实施了响应者培训等级。对于人员信息,疾病预防控制中心开发了可互操作的数据库,以简化对特定人员专业知识的搜索,以做出回应。为了提高响应者的影响力,CDC开发了各种机制来有效地识别潜在的响应者并将其分配给响应。这些措施共同作用,以维持一支有资格的公共卫生突发事件的劳动力队伍,并且可能对其他公共卫生机构的人员配备和培训其应急工作人员可能有所帮助。
