In addition to our disaster response and preparedness and resilience programs, Healthcare Ready undertakes research on relvant and topical issues within the healthcare and public health preparedness and response field.

 

Pharmacy

 

The field of pharmacy has been incredibly active in preparedness and response in recent years, developing novel resources and establishing and expanding public-private partnerships.

Our issue brief, Pharmacy and Emergency Preparedness: A Landscape Analysis, summarizes persistent and emerging challenges in the field as well as highlights novel resources and partnerships.

Emergency Preparedness:
A Landscape Analysis
 

As part of the research for this component, Healthcare Ready co-hosted a roundtable discussion event with HHS’s Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR). The event brought public officials and retail and community pharmacy owners and operators, payers, healthcare preparedness experts and other pharmacy stakeholders together to discussion innovations in the field and emerging and persistent challenges.

 

 

Telehealth

 

Technologies to support healthcare delivery and education are evolving every day and revolutionizing patient care. Telehealth is on track to be a disruptive force in healthcare, bringing about major changes in the way care is provided. It also holds great potential for strengthening preparedness and increasing resilience.

 

Our issue brief on the topic, Telehealth’s Applications for Preparedness and Response,  lays out what telehealth is, how it is being used in the lifecycle of natural disaster response and public health emergencies, and specific challenges and barriers.
