49 Roster development

50 Lessons learnt WHO and Ministry of Health

51 Public health interventions Key Recommendation Develop guidelines and tools: Information management, EOC. Ensure the emergency Unit can coordinate and maintain preparedness and response capacity Develop multi sectorial coordination mechanism in any level Revise contents of Kits according to settings Maintain readiness: functionality of structures and surge capacity tested through: 1) training and drills at all relevant levels; 2) maintaining rosters of skilled professionals.

52 Medical Intervention Key Recommendations To make the inventory of tools and guidelines developed or translated during the emergency: Review them, make them endorsed by the MoH and to disseminate them ( HOPE, PTC, trauma guidelines) Centralization of all medical data to HEOC To implement the Mental Health policy To develop step-down health facilities and active rehab units.

53 Medical Intervention Key Recommendations To strengthen infection control (guidelines especially in temporary settlements) Early Deployment Medical Teams Discharge and referral systems Pre-hospital care mechanism-community To provide Disaster management training to all staff in Hub and Satellite hospitals. Hospitals > 50 beds should have disaster management plan Every hospital should have non-structural retrofitting

54 Stewardship Key Recommendations 1. National framework and protocols to be developed on: Integration Guidelines (FMT, Financing, Information management, HR, waste management etc) 2. Adaptation of Medical Team Mobilization guidelines. 3. Institutional architecture in place at ministry for ERM DRR framework (health) Community engagement.

55 Stewardship Key Recommendations Strengthen Information management and use (integrated) for all sectors Coordination, standard guidelines form, formats; use of data, role, responsibilities, communication mechanism (for different scenario) Institutionalize and strengthen HUB hospitals To strengthen monitoring and evaluation of the impact and response mechanism.
