Presentation on Staffing Considerations for Crisis Standards of Care for the COVID-19 Pandemic

About

A new rapid expert consultation from a standing committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine outlines considerations for clinical staffing needs during the implementation of Crisis Standards of Care (CSC), including adjusting staff responsibilities, providing “hazard pay” to staff, ensuring adequate time off, offering child care and other benefits, and leveraging health care coalitions to ensure appropriate transfer of patients between hospitals. The rapid expert consultation says health care systems should consider a number of staffing strategies, including moving clinical staff from lesser-affected regions or from one facility to another; adjusting the ratio of critical care nurses to patients; using local and national contract agencies for short-term support; and tailoring the job responsibilities of existing staff.

Over the course of the next week, The National Academies will host several webinar offerings to brief stakeholders on the consultation document and provide an opportunity for Q/A.

Speakers

Harvey Fineberg (Standing Committee Chair)

John L. Hick (Standing Committee Member and Consultation Author)

Dan Hanfling (Consultation Author)

While all three webinars are open for registration for all interested stakeholders, the presenters will focus on information vital for state and local officials, hospital and health system administrators, and healthcare workers at the 7/31 and 8/4 presentations, and information of interest to professional societies and associations on 8/5.
