The Honorable, The Legislature:
The Department of Health Services is please to submit to you and the Legislature the report on Wisconsin's Public Health Emergency Preparedness. The report was prepared by the Division of Public Health, as required by 250.03(3)(b) Wis. Stats.
S400
Wisconsin's Emergency Preparedness Program continues to strengthen the foundation of preparedness through planning, workforce competency development training, and exercises. These efforts among state and local partners assure both individual agency response capability, and strong coordination for regional and statewide response. Highlights from the report, "Prepared - Protecting Wisconsin's Health: Public Health Emergency Preparedness," include:
• Extensive pandemic influenza planning, purchasing of antiviral medication and exercising plans for disease containment.
• Planning for Wisconsin's Special Populations with statewide expert input on a toolkit for local public health agencies.
• Updating Wisconsin's volunteer protection laws and activating the Wisconsin Emergency Assistance Volunteer Registry (WEAVR) to connect healthcare professional resources in a disaster.
• Testing, evaluating and improving emergency response to public health emergencies, terrorism and mass casualty events at the state, regional, local and tribal level.
These successes reflect sustained progress as well as exciting enhancements to Wisconsin's readiness to prevent, detect, investigate, control and recover from a public health emergency.
Sincerely,
