The intention of the report is to identify and analyze
major threat scenarios for infectious diseases, releases of hazardous material
and major trauma events, where possible linking to real events with lessons
learned. Such events might be considered “Events of Public Health Concern”
(EoPHC) and the scenarios that exemplify them assist with the definition
of the scope of the IMPRESS toolbox. The risks posed by these threats on a nation’s
public health are explored.
IMPRESS Project Blogspot IMPRESS aims to advance the preparedness of emergency medical services (ambulance dispatch centers, hospitals, volunteer communities etc) in numerous ways, including through planning for all-hazards, increasing surge capacity, tracking the availability of beds and other resources using electronic systems, and developing systems that are interoperable with other response teams.
