Effective 10/22/2009 Josephine County has activated its pandemic emergency disaster plan. See your agency representitive to see what your agency's role will be as the plan is implemented! As a healthcare provider, educate yourself on what the H1N1 virus is, and what you can do to minimize your exposure. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has an entire website of information on the H1N1 virus. you can find it here: CDC-H1N1
In addition, FLU.GOV has a wealth of information specific to healthcare professionals.Check back often as your Prehospital Care Committee continues to research vital information and develop county response protocols to the H1N1 threat.
I have uploaded to powerpoint presentations offered by the CDC for information on H1N1, as well as a PPE refresher.
