Course Overview
Accreditation bodies assess disaster inter-agency coordination on documented evidence of consistent practice. Cost pressure and quality expectations on this aspect of health and pharmaceutical services are rising at the same time. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of the health and pharmaceutical services capability to standardise and which to leave flexible. The difficulty is not agreeing that disaster inter-agency coordination matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in the health and pharmaceutical services discipline, not around theory headings. Applied research in health and pharmaceutical services consistently shows that early structure around disaster inter-agency coordination reduces downstream rework. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make this strand of health and pharmaceutical services hard in practice. The final session converts the week's work on the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda into commitments with owners and dates.
