Shift from a linear structure …
Prepare
Respond
Recover
To One Disaster Cycle

The Red Cross began an extensive effort in 2012 to reassess and revise its approach to disaster services.
Feedback from our customers, volunteers & partners consistently told us that Red Cross needs to:
Be reliable
Deliver consistent & high quality services
Allow flexibility at the local level to meet local needs
Be active across all phases of the disaster cycle
Our revised structure and approach seeks to address those four points
What’s Different
What is the Disaster Cycle?

CDC/ARC Surveillance Committee
Members Red Cross - Disaster Health Services CDC - National Center for Environmental Health Role Increase capacity of Red Cross’ volunteers to capture and report these data Develop processes to ensure data sharing with DRO and partners during the disaster

Why Collect Morbidity & Mortality Data?
To identify potential threats to client(s) requiring immediate public health action(s)
To provide data for situational awareness To assist in plan and prepare for future responses To promote awareness of nursing practice in relationship to epidemiology in
disasters To support states compliance with the National Mass Care Strategy To disseminate findings to the preparedness community and advance disaster
science

Health Services NY Shelter Visits
29% - mental health issues
22% - follow-up care
19% - exacerbation chronic conditions
13% - acute conditions
When Does Red Cross Collect Surveillance Data?
Depends on size of Disaster Levels:
• Level l – Chapter disaster response (e.g., single or small multi-family house fire or flood)
• Level ll – Chapter response larger multi-family or neighborhood event (e.g., multi-family or apt fire)
• Level lll – Multi-chapter, state, or regional disaster response
• Level lV and above – National HQ response
21
Disaster-Related Fatalities
All deaths associated with a disaster
All single and multi-family fires deaths
Information obtained about disaster-related deaths are identified by the coroner/medical examiner, fire and police departments, hospitals and emergency departments or other similar sources
Condolence Visits
• Once deaths are verified, Red Cross usually schedule condolence visits with the family
Condolence visits include health services, mental health and/or spiritual care and possibly client casework
• For larger scale fatalities, an integrated care team is established to contact families
