Online Trainings
Available for Community Emergency Preparedness for Older Adults and People
with Disabilities
HHS's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and
Response (ASPR) has a new online training on older adults and disasters
that is designed to improve public health and emergency medical responders’
capability to address the access and functional needs of community-dwelling
older adults in disasters.
This new training complements ASPR's previously-released Access and Functional Needs (AFN) web-based training
defines the concept and requirements for addressing the AFN of at-risk
individuals, and provides tools and resources to help you address the AFN
of at-risk individuals in your community during disaster preparedness,
response, and recovery activities.
The trainings are at-your-own-pace and free, although
participants will need to create an account in the TRAIN system to access
training.
