Rethinking Disaster Preparedness and Response After a Pandemic
Pandemics are wide-reaching infectious disease outbreaks that affect large geographic regions across the globe. Pandemics impact on societies could be devastating due to the significant health, social, economic, and political disruption. Historical analysis of major pandemics and the challenges imposed by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have revealed several preparedness and response gaps. There is a need to rethink preparedness and response planning to better prepare for future pandemics.
This course will cover the general framework of pandemic preparedness and response. Moreover, the significant gaps and limitations of the current preparedness and response strategies will be highlighted. Approaches to overcome these limitations to better respond to future pandemics will also be discussed.

Assessment of Risk for Hazardous Drugs
In this course, we will review the steps needed to create and utilize a drug inventory list to identify hazardous drugs and substances and determine the applicable National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) table, or other hazardous properties to complete a basic Assessment of Risk as defined by USP 800.
The course will also provide guidance on the steps and practical examples on utilizing the drug inventory to create an Assessment of Risk platform. This will include how to determine if the Assessment of Risk and alternative containment strategies will meet the basic hazardous drug safety requirements for OSHA and USP 800 or if a complete application of the USP 800 standards are recommended.
