Proper Citation: Emergency Preparedness and Response (RRID:SCR_012793)
Description: This site is intended to increase the nation''s ability to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. Emergency preparedness requires attention not just to specific types of hazards but also to steps that increase preparedness for any type of hazard. The resources in this website are intended to help professionals take an all-hazards approach to preparedness. People prepared for emerging health threats-people in all communities will be protected from infectious, occupational, environmental, and terrorist threats, is one of CDC''s four health protection goals. CDC plays a key role in preparing the nation for all types of public health threats, including natural, biological, chemical, radiological, and nuclear incidents. When a disaster occurs, CDC is prepared to respond and support national, state, and local partners to save lives and reduce suffering. CDC also helps these partners recover and restore public health functions after the initial response. National emergency preparedness requires a coordinated effort involving every level of government as well as the private sector, non-governmental organizations, and individual citizens. CDC''s work in preparedness supports the Department of Homeland Security, which has overall authority for emergency response activities as laid out in the National Response Framework. Protecting the public from health threats involves public health preparedness as well as medical preparedness. Both are essential for national health security and, hence, to the overall preparedness of the nation. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
