Scope of healthcare emergency management

This week we have three objectives to learn about:

1. Describe the role and responsibilities of the healthcare emergency manager.

2. Identify challenges that exist for the healthcare emergency manager.

3. Compare and contrast the core competencies of Emergency Managers to the Core Competencies for Hospital Emergency Managers.

Use APA style and include the above objectives and the appropriate citation to answer the following question:

1. Based on your readings and experience, compare and contrast how health care emergency management evolved before 9/11 to its evolution after 9/11. 2. Why has the scope of healthcare emergency management grown so dramatically? Will the growth continue?
