Healthcare Emergency Management Structures

[Bradley Marmon]

Hello Healthcare Caucus - 

I am asking for anyone that is willing to share their Hospital/Health System Emergency Management Structures. We are conducting and Audit/Assessment and there is particular interest in how we compare to other organizations. 

Questions I am interested in:

State or Private?

Academic Medical Center or Stand Alone?

How many beds?

Structure makeup (1 Director, 2 Coordinators..etc.)

Who does the Department report to? (CEO, COO, VP?)

Are you embedded in another department (Public Safety, Environmental Health/Safety)

Any additional information you feel is important is also great. 

I will start: 

We are a State Hospital within SUNY (State University of New York) Academic Medical Center operating two hospitals combining for about ~650-700 beds. University Hospital is the Level 1 Trauma (adult/peds) and Burn Center for ~15 counties in Central New York. Additionally, our health system includes 25+ ambulatory sites region wide. 

Currently we have 1 Director, 1 Sr. Specialist, and 1 Academic Focus Coordinator (new hire coming Spring 2024). We have 2 part-time Hazmat Instructors who educate ~400 staff per year. We also host the CNY HTC that works out of our office. (grant funded, 1 FTE, included in our staffing plan for purposes of this thread)

We are a stand alone department that reports to the Chief Operations Officer (COO), and our charter places us in Operational Support and Environment of Care Committees. Ad Hoc membership to Infection Prevention, WPV, and Accreditation Readiness Committees. 

Currently, all of our full-time staff are educated to the Master's Graduate Level ( 1 MBA, 2 MPH), and we have 1 CEM on staff. 

Thanks and I appreciate your time.
