Contracting Procurement & Supply Management
November 19, 2020
|
|
As a component of emergency/disaster (E/D) preparedness, healthcare systems have been challenged to determine what specific medical supplies and equipment they should procure and stockpile. While some guidance is outlined for pandemic influenza planning, there is limited research beyond this to guide what should be held in a health sector E/D stockpile. In addition to the identification and procurement of supplies and equipment, efficient and effective management of these risk management resources is critical.
In 2011, Alberta Health Services (AHS) initiated a project to design and develop a provincial, all hazard E/D equipment and supplies Stockpile. The presentation will provide an overview of AHS’ Stockpile from concept, governance, design and development, to successes, learnings to date and recent COVID-19 experience. AHS’s experience and learnings may help guide the actions of other healthcare systems.
