CT Preparedness Training
The Chemical Terrorism Coordinators are continuing
to outreach to the
health and medical community by offering training for CT Preparedness
at the local Hospitals and County Health Departments. These partners
will play an important part in the response to a chemical exposure
incident since clinical specimens will be collected for analysis. This
training covers Chemical Terrorism Awareness and
the Collection of
Clinical Specimens after a Chemical Terrorism Event. To
encourage
participation it is our pleasure to make arrangements to give these
presentations at your facility and at your convenience. It takes about
2 hours to cover both topics, including one 15 minute break.
Laboratorian, Nursing, and Environmental Scientist CE credit will be
offered for each. We also provide the training manuals, exercise
materials and CT Preparedness kits to keep on hand. This training is
recommended for Physicians, Nurses, Epidemiologists, Emergency
Department Personnel, Phlebotomists, Hospital and Health Department
Laboratory Personnel, and others who may collect clinical samples. If
you are interested in your personnel attending this class, please
contact Dr. Victor
Asirvatham at 904 791-1792 or email us, and a
class can be scheduled for your
personnel at your facility.
