Just wanted to share the Academy’s emergency response training information. We also work with agencies to evaluate their emergency preparedness using an all hazards approach. Our next emergency response class is Monday which is very short notice, but if there is interest in additional classes at specific agencies or regions of Ohio please let me know.  The link below takes you to class information.

Subject: New checklist for I/DD providers on emergency preparedness

Many thanks to Diane Evans and the folks at MyHIPAA for sharing this.

Are you prepared for an emergency evacuation?

The attached checklist is compliments of MyHIPAA Guide.  

The checklist is adapted from a presentation at the Association of Professional Developmental Disabilities Administrators on April 23, 2018 in San Antonio, Texas. Presenters included emergency response leaders who successfully evacuated residents of state-supported living centers in Texas during Hurricane Harvey.  

Keep in mind, emergency preparedness includes protection of private health information -- and a whole lot more.
