The Center for Bioterrorism
and All-Hazards Preparedness of Nova Southeastern
University College of Osteopathic Medicine is a regional resource
for the provision of medical and health professions education
focused on bioterrorism and all-hazards preparedness and response.
The threat of natural disaster and terrorism in the
United States is real and proven. We believe that
all healthcare professionals and workers must be provided
with up-to-date information and training in rapid assessment
skills so that they can initiate and support care should
an event occur. The importance of educating healthcare professionals
in surveillance, prevention, and public health issues is
paramount. In response to this need, Nova Southeastern University
College of Osteopathic Medicine has partnered with Broward
Community College to develop training programs and to share
information for health care professionals, health care workers,
first responders, and health care administrators in the state
of Florida.
Training is accredited, free, and provided through
a HRSA continuing education grant. It is available
in multiple formats including web-based courses, speaker programs,
and CD and booklet formats. Courses are available at 4 levels
including:
- Basic Awareness Course (now available
online and through speaker programs)
- Intermediate Course (coming soon)
- Advanced Course (in development)
- Executive and Hospital Administrator Course (in development)
Courses can also be adapted to meet the specific needs
of your organization.
