Sobre nosotros
La División de Preparación y Respuesta ante Emergencias (EP&R) del Distrito de Salud de Prince William (PWHD, por sus siglas en inglés) es responsable de prevenir, prepararse, responder, recuperarse y mitigar las emergencias de salud pública. Utilizando los principios del Sistema Nacional de Gestión de Incidentes y el Sistema de Comando de Incidentes para organizar emergencias de salud pública, EP&R está bien equipado para coordinar y organizar emergencias complejas de salud pública.
EP&R also oversees the Greater Prince William Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) program. This program trains volunteers to support in public health emergencies. The MRC volunteers can assist community healthcare partners in training and exercise. To request MRC volunteers, email PrinceWilliamMRC@vdh.virginia.gov.
The PWHD is accredited by the National Association of County and City Health Officials’ Project Public Health Ready. PPHR is a competency-based training and recognition program that assesses preparedness and assists local health departments to respond to public health emergencies. Through a continuous quality improvement model, this accreditation showcases the preparedness capacity and capability of the PWHD.
