Home Health Planning: Develop regional emergency preparedness plans addressing the following items
* Office hazard/vulnerability assessment and CoOP assessment (e.g. generator hook-ups, back-up location, emergency staffing plan)
* Hospital discharge process assessment – when the hospitals want to move patients out, how is this communicated with the home health groups (case managers, paperwork, etc)
* Home Health In-take process assessment – draft surge process plan
* Asset/transportation assessment – regional database
* Needs assessment (e.g. PPE stockpile, communication capabilities)
* Communication plans – alert/update message/survey to clients or staff, trigger points for alert, decision makers
