Healthcare System Recovery Sample Clauses

Healthcare System Recovery. Introduction Recovery encompasses both short-term and long-term efforts for the rebuilding and revitalization of affected communities. Recovery planning builds stakeholder partnerships that lead to community restoration and future sustainability and resiliency. Recovery planning must provide for a near-seamless transition from response activities to short-term recovery operations. Planners should design long-term recovery plans to maximize results through the efficient use of resources and incorporate national recovery doctrine as outlined in the National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF).6 Successful healthcare service delivery system recovery is contingent on the resilience that is built through early and regular collaboration done with community partners. Working with partners such as public health, business, education, and emergency management can help to plan and advocate for the rebuilding of public health, medical, and mental or behavioral health systems to at least a level of functioning comparable to pre- incident levels and improved levels where possible. The focus is on an effective and efficient return to normalcy or a new standard of normalcy for the provision of healthcare delivery to the community. Recovery must be planned for as part of the preparedness process to facilitate an effective and efficient return to normal healthcare delivery operations, when needed.
