COLLEAGUES:
Dillard University’s School
of Public Health has partnered with the Department of Health and Hospitals,
Office of Public Health to offer a crisis & emergency risk communications
training. Public communicators face many challenges when responding to
emergency situations. The Department of Health and Hospitals, Office of Public
Health (DHH/OPH) wants to help meet these challenges by providing an important
resource. DHH/OPH and Dillard University is sponsoring a training to address
topics critical to successful communications during an emergency situation.
This training is designed for emergency response spokespeople and professionals
designated to work with the media during health crises. This interactive
training gives participants essential knowledge, tools and resources to help
them make the best possible decisions during a public health emergency and to
communicate those decisions to the public and media.
The presenter of this
training is the DHH-Bureau of Media Communications Public Information Officer,
Ken Pastorick. The training is free and will be held on Dillard
University’s campus in the Professional Studies Building, Room 136 on Friday,
January 20, 2012 at 1:30 pm. Certificates will be provided to
participants. To register, please contact Amanda Raudsep at Amanda.Raudsep@la.gov.
