Bioterrorism: A Guide for Sickbay Preparedness Books
Product Description
In the battle hostile to bioterrorism, one of the greatest challenges is finding the ideal balance between smugness and overreaction. The goal is to be so well prepared that we can preclude catastrophic outcomes in the event of a bioterrorist attack, even as strengthening our ability to preclude and handle naturally-occurring infectious diseases.
Bioterrorism: A Guide for Sickbay Preparedness provides critical guidelines for health providers on effectively preparing for bioterrorism. The book presents in rank on all aspects of dealing with bioterrorism including the likeliest biological agents to be used, means of determining that an attack is taking place, diagnosis and management of specific diseases, and mechanisms of reporting to broadcast health authorities. The text reviews cooperative plotting for private practitioners, methods for protecting sickbay and office staff and other patients in the event of an attack, approaches to handling the psychological effects of terrorism, unique considerations as regards the care of children, and strategies for answering questions posed by the broadcast and the media. It also includes data from national and regional exercises in assessing preparedness, with suggestions for implementing lessons learned from these exercises.
With bioterrorism on the fine line between risk and reality, it is essential for health care providers to be properly equipped for every situation. This comprehensive guide features solid strategies for establishing and maintaining an attainable level of preparation in the ever-bestow risk of bioterrorism.
