| dc.description.abstract | Emergency planning is a complex and ongoing effort in hospitals today. Significant resources are devoted to planning, practicing, educating and promoting awareness of staff roles in the event of an emergency. There is awareness at St. Louis Children’s Hospital (SLCH) of the need for planning for access to health information during an emergency and for formally incorporating information access into the SLCH Emergency Operations Plan. Documenting the process of integrating the library into the SLCH Emergency Operations Plan, providing materials and programs to inform clinical staff and requesting feedback from the targeted audience will enable the investigators to clearly describe the process for identifying need, developing documents and programs to address that need and understanding the effectiveness of the process so that other hospitals and health sciences libraries have a model for how to approach this issue and ensure access to health information for their populations. | en_US |
