Select indicators that show whether post-disaster lessons learned is improving, and reject those that only look useful.
Evaluating Lessons Learned After Major Health Disasters
Turn post-disaster lessons learned from a stated policy into a practice your organisation can evidence.
Course Overview
Clinical staff will work around a process for post-disaster lessons learned that obstructs care, and they will be right to. The data supporting the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda is usually present but rarely assembled into a decision. Plans for the health and pharmaceutical services capability often fail at the handover point between functions. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for post-disaster lessons learned. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make the practice within health and pharmaceutical services hard in practice. It establishes a shared vocabulary for the health and pharmaceutical services discipline so that teams can disagree productively about it. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to post-disaster lessons learned in an order their organisation can absorb. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place this strand of health and pharmaceutical services among the areas with the widest performance spread. The final module sets out how progress on this area of health and pharmaceutical services will be evidenced six months later.
