Community Recovery. This deliverable requirement will help cover this gap. The purpose is to create a framework from which a full plan will emerge. Write either a stand-alone document or a section into a current plan for supporting community recovery operations following a disaster. This planning component does not have to be detailed; a high-level overview will be sufficient. It should encompass the purpose, scope of recovery, roles, responsibilities, local partners, access and functional needs, and a caveat for providing service as-able. The first step is to identify and review potential public health needs during disaster recovery with community and response partners. These partners should also understand the scope and roles of public health during recovery. Keep in mind that your roles should not go beyond the currently available services you provide. Sharing this information is critical to recovery planning. Remember that recovery is more than just returning to the previous status after a disaster. It is an opportunity to establish a modern and up-to-date standard. Consider sharing and gathering input for your recovery framework with these partners. • Emergency manager • School administrators • Hospital administrators or emergency managers • Local health officials • Local elected leadership • Social service representatives Public health recovery is a broad endeavor. You will need many more partners from several community sectors to do full recovery planning, but public health is the current focus. Public health recovery activities (operations) should include the following. • Restore services • Provide long-term follow-up to those affected • Implement recommendations from after-action reports • Ensure sustained, basic and surge capacities of public health resources • Address the psychosocial needs of impacted populations and responders This is a framework, not a full plan, so details and processes are not needed. Keep it high-level. DPHHS PHEP will provide guidance and technical assistance. A template will be developed in the coming budget period.
