Communications Systems and Information Sharing Topic Collections (Updated)
Robust communication systems can allow first responders and medical professionals to maintain communication after a disaster. The timely and effective sharing of information within and across jurisdictions, disciplines, and organizations is critical to an effective public health emergency and disaster response. Much progress has been made since 9/11, and best practices indicate that those communities with solid, daily, consistent public health and homeland security collaborations respond better to critical incidents. The recently updated Communications Systems and Information Sharing Topic Collections highlight guidance and lessons learned that can help our stakeholders address these considerations in their own plans to ensure a common operating picture.
