Viewpoints in Homeland Defense and Security: University Virtual Operations Support Team: Engaging Student Volunteers in Social Media Response [video]
From the Webpage: "In this Viewpoints, Kyle Falkner, City of Fort Worth Fire Department, and Charity Menefee , Knox County TN Health Department, talk about the potential of their UVOST program (University Virtual Operations Support Team). As part of their Master's work, Kyle and Charity are examining the virtual operation support team concept, where remote volunteers can assist an agency with its social media emergency response. The program looks to local universities as partners in building student volunteer support units. These units can be trained to assist local agencies with some of their social media responsibilities, without significant increases in agency resources." The duration of this video is 12 minutes and 35 seconds.

When the House is Full, but the Guests Keep Coming: Determining the Impact of Daily Hospital Overcrowding on Disaster Response
From the thesis abstract: "Hospitals throughout the United States are facing overcrowding every day, with more patients than available staff and space can accommodate, yet current disaster response policy related to managing a surge of patients does not include considerations for this daily challenge. This thesis investigates the questions that need to be answered regarding the foundational principles of current U.S. surge policy and how healthcare coalitions might assist in answering such questions. A gap analysis of current healthcare coalition policy related to surge was completed that identified the need for policy makers to continue to expand the role of evidence-based decision making for surge policy. As a result, this thesis recommends that additional data points be added for hospitals receiving patients during the required annual coalition surge test-related performance measures for healthcare coalitions. The additional data points are designed to help policy makers determine whether overcrowding impacts surge response, so policy can be adjusted if needed."
