2 I. INTRODUCTION A. Purpose 1. To organize, mobilize, coordinate, and direct public health and medical resources and support in an emergency or disaster within the incorporated and unincorporated areas of Pierce County (Region V). 2. To provide for the coordination of pre-hospital, hospital, medical community, and fatalities management. 3. To provide for the care of the sick, injured and dead resulting from an emergency or disaster. 4. To facilitate the coordinated use of medical resources such as personnel, facilities, equipment, and supplies. 5. To provide for the coordination of crisis response, and spiritual and mental health services for persons who suffer from reactions to the emergency or disaster. 6. To provide for critical incident stress management services for emergency service workers. 7. To provide for the systems and methods required for surveillance, mitigation, and interventions to reduce the impact(s) from events potentially or actually affecting public health in Pierce County, including food safety, environmental health, and communicable diseases. B. Scope This ESF identifies Emergency Medical Services (EMS), public health, medical and related services provided to citizens of Pierce County along with guidelines for the coordination of these services. These guidelines are not intended to circumvent the use of training, practice, experience, and judgment of the primary and support agencies involved in the delivery of this ESF. This plan does not address catastrophic failure where total infrastructure collapse has occurred or where coordination is unable to occur because of communication system failure. It is intended that this document will interface with work being completed on the WA State Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program Puget Sound Region (RCPGP), as appropriate (see Incident Annex 2: Catastrophic Incidents). ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
3 II. POLICIES A. Pierce County Emergency Medical Services (EMS), Emergency Medical Responders (EMRs), Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and Paramedics who provide emergency medical assistance in Pierce County shall operate under the current revision of the Pierce County Emergency Medical Services, Emergency Medical Program Director Patient Care Protocols and Pierce County Patient Care Procedures. B. Pierce County EMS will operate within the guidelines established in the Pierce County Fire Chiefs Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Plan. When an incident meets the thresholds in the MCI plan, EMS personnel are allowed to operate within the established written patient care protocols and procedures. C. During a MCI, patient transport is directed through the Disaster Medical Control Center (DMCC) and all area hospitals will receive MCI patients, unless incapacitated. Good Samaritan Hospital is the DMCC for Pierce County. Madigan Health Care System is the alternate. D. The Director of Health or designee, as the county health officer, is authorized to implement measures as necessary to control communicable disease exposure or contamination of food, water and environmental resources (RCW 70.05). E. The Pierce County Chaplaincy Program (PCC) provides stress management and emotional and spiritual support to county emergency responders and their families. Inpatient and outpatient mental health services are provided by OptumHealth Pierce Regional Support Network (RSN); a Mental Health Crisis Line (Protocol), a Mental Health Recovery Response Center (Recovery Innovations), and an Evaluation and Treatment Center (Telecare). The Associated Ministries provides spiritual support to victims. F. The Pierce County Medical Examiner reports directly to the Pierce County Executive and has independent authority in all cities/towns and all unincorporated areas of Pierce County, with the exclusive jurisdiction over human remains in all unnatural or unlawful civilian deaths; persons who come to their death suddenly when in apparent good health without medical attendance within the thirty-six hours preceding death; and all unclaimed bodies. Deaths on military reservations or of active duty military personnel are the shared jurisdiction of the military (and/or the Armed Forces Medical Examiner) and the Pierce County Medical Examiner, defaulting to the Pierce County Medical Examiner if military jurisdiction is not assumed. Medical Examiner jurisdiction may include some cases of suspected contagious disease that may be a public health hazard (RCW ). G. Medical personnel unable to report to their designated work location should report to the nearest health care facility or follow directions from the Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) of the parent organization or directions through the media. H. The National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) is a federally coordinated system that augments the nation s emergency medical response capability. The NDMS establishes a single, integrated national medical response capability for assisting ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
4 state and local authorities in dealing with the medical and health effects of major peacetime disasters. Madigan Health Care System (MHCS) is the military Western Region Medical Command and Primary Patient Reception Center as identified in the NDMS plan. I. Per agreement between TPCHD and the Northwest Healthcare Response Network (NWHRN), NWHRN will serve as the lead healthcare coordination agency for gathering information on healthcare impacts and other healthcare related situational awareness, initial management of medical resource needs, facilitation of healthcare related mutual aid, and activation of healthcare clinical and policy leadership groups to inform the healthcare organizations and the health department. NWHRN reports through TPCHD within the ESF 8 structure. J. All policies will be NIMS/ICS compliant. III. SITUATION A. Emergency/Disaster Condition and Hazards The Pierce County Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) and other assessments list the natural, technological and social emergencies which are potential threats to the life safety and the associated damage to property, the economy and the environment. The Threat Response System website has additional information of possible weapons of mass destruction (WMD) targets within the county. All listed hazards pose a risk, of various degrees, to the public health and medical conditions and services within Pierce County. B. Planning Assumptions 1. If the health and medical system is functioning, the need for alternate care facilities will not be necessary. 2. Alternate care facilities will be activated if the health and medical system cannot support the levels of needed medical care. Treatment and transport of patients include four phases: Treat and transfer within Region V Treat and transfer outside of Region V Forward movement of patients using state and federal resources Activation of community alternate care facility system 3. Natural, technological, and biological emergencies or disasters can overwhelm county health and medical facilities and services requiring emergency coordination of resources. 4. Health and medical facilities may be severely damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable. 5. Infrastructure (transportation, communication, utilities, etc.) may be damaged and impact the ability of the county s health and medical services to be effective. ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
5 6. Conditions caused by disasters or disease outbreaks may affect the availability of medical and non-medical resources needed by healthcare organizations and providers needed to deliver care. Under circumstances of resource scarcity, available resources may need to be prioritized and the level of care may need to change in order to do the greatest good for the community. 7. Infrastructure damage and disruption may increase the potential for disease and injury. 8. The high risk population will have a variety of medical conditions and will include people who require specialized medical support. 9. People in the high risk population or the general population whose health degrades during the response and/or recovery operation will require additional medical support that could include hospitalization. 10. Disruption of sanitation services and facilities, loss of power, and massing of people in shelters may increase the potential for disease and injury. 11. Contamination of food and water supplies may increase the potential for disease and injury. 12. Availability of medical care personnel may be limited due to injury, illness, personal concerns/needs or limited access to work locations. 13. Medical facilities still operational after the emergency or disaster will be overwhelmed by mild to seriously injured victims in the immediate aftermath of the occurrence. 14. Surveillance for communicable disease will be needed during emergencies and disasters. 15. Hospitals, long-term care facilities, other inpatient and outpatient facilities and pharmacies may rely on existing emergency service contracts with appropriate vendors for medical equipment, pharmaceuticals, linens and other day-to-day supplies. These facilities are expected to plan and stock for a minimum of four days of self-sufficiency. 16. The damage and destruction caused by an emergency or disaster will produce urgent needs for mental health crisis counseling and spiritual support for disaster victims and emergency response personnel. 17. The Pierce County Medical System (emergency medical, public health and related services) will be restored to normal operations during the recovery period as soon as possible and within the limitations and capabilities of county government following the emergency or disaster. 18. Health and medical agencies may require physical protection of their staff, facility and its contents. ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
6 19. Recovery operations will include a public health assessment of food, water, and sanitation to ensure safety of the public s health. IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. General 1. The level of ESF 8 activation will be dependent on the magnitude of the emergency or disaster. 2. Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department (TPCHD) and the Northwest Healthcare Response Network (NWHRN) will provide 24-hour duty officer coverage in support of public health and medical response activities and will work in cooperation with the City/Pierce County Department of Emergency Management Duty Officer who will be providing support to all other field response activities. 3. NWHRN s Healthcare Emergency Coordination Center (HECC), comprised of representatives from TPCHD, hospitals, clinics, PC EMS and others as deemed necessary, will evaluate, prioritize and coordinate requests for medical resources. 4. ESF 8 agencies (primary and support) will maintain a workable emergency operational plan identifying critical personnel and responsibilities, emergency chain of command, appropriate emergency notification procedures and alternate work locations. 5. All ESF 8 agencies will maintain coordinated emergency operations plans with other ESF 8 agencies. 6. ESF 8 agencies will establish Continuity of Operations Plans (COOP) procedures and lines of succession which are updated regularly. 7. ESF 8 agencies will maintain communications systems (telecommunications and radio) that are consistent with the PC EMS/Public Health and Medical Communication Plan. 8. TPCHD will provide health related educational and technical information releases in coordination with the Joint Information System/Joint Information Centers (JIS/JIC). B. Tacoma Pierce County Health Department 1. Safeguard and enhance the health and well being of the public. 2. Protect the health and safety of TPCHD employees and facilities 3. Identify and mitigate adverse impacts to Pierce County public health from any type of incident. 4. Inform the public/medical communities regarding incident specifics, including steps to safeguard and protect the health of the public. 5. Safeguard the Pierce County Medical System. ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
7 6. Continue operation of essential TPCHD services. C. Public and Private Emergency Medical Service Agencies 1. In disaster conditions all Pierce County fire departments and districts and private ambulance companies will provide emergency medical services. The DMCC will direct and coordinate these services for pre-hospital patient distribution. All Pierce County EMS agencies will respond to the emergency or disaster to establish field triage areas, direct triage and START (Simple Triage and Rapid Transport) procedures, and initiate communications with the designated DMCC as outlined in the Pierce County Fire Chiefs Mass Casualty Incident Plan. 2. The Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) assets will supplement field operations resources during emergencies or disasters when indicated. The field incident commander (IC) can declare a mass casualty incident (MCI) and request MMRS from Tacoma Communications Center. The IC will notify DMCC of the MCI. (MMRS capacity is 100 casualties or more. These resources are contained in a 36 foot trailer.) 3. Ground ambulance transportation may be supplemented by air ambulance transportation when indicated and as resources allow. Pierce Transit or other private transportation agencies may supplement the transport of designated patients resulting from a mass casualty incident. D. North West Healthcare Response Network NWHRN, a non-profit, public-private partnership healthcare coalition, will serve as the lead healthcare coordination agency to facilitate: Alignment and standardization where possible across healthcare on emergency response strategies, tactics and resource utilization Coordination of healthcare clinical and policy leadership groups to inform the healthcare organizations and the health department on response and recovery issues affecting healthcare. Coordination of healthcare related situational awareness regarding information on healthcare impacts, strategies and needs Management of medical resource needs, facilitation of healthcare related mutual aid and resource sharing Support to EOCs by providing non-medical resource matching assistance among healthcare organizations if requested NWHRN will coordinate with TPCHD within the ESF 8 structure and with the local/county EOCs as necessary if requested by TPCHD. In support of emergency response activities, NWHRN will activate the HECC, based at NWHRN offices in Tukwila, or remotely as circumstances warrant, to support its core responsibilities. ESF 8: Health and Medical/September of 16
8 E. The Disaster Medical Control Center (DMCC) is located at Good Samaritan Hospital. Madigan Health Care System (MHCS) is the alternate location. Rare circumstances, such as an inability to provide communications, may create the need to transfer primary DMCC responsibilities to the Pierce County alternate DMCC, Madigan Health Care System (MHCS), or the King County DMCC. After the decision to transfer responsibilities to either of the DMCC alternates, the Pierce County DMCC will use existing procedures to inform the TPCHD Duty Officer and the PC Duty Officer of this transfer of responsibility.
