The Harvard School of Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Exercise Program is offering a free downloadable decontamination self-assessment tool to help hospitals evaluate their decontamination plans and capabilities.
The self-assessment includes guidance for a hospital's emergency management cycle for a hazardous materials incident requiring the decontamination of patients exposed to chemical, biological, radiological and/or nuclear agents. The tool asks questions about decontamination planning and preparedness, response and recovery capabilities in a checklist format, and provides additional resources throughout the document and in the appendix.
The self-assessment was published in 2013 by the Emergency Preparedness Bureau at the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.
