TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Emergency physician disaster deployment: issues to consider and a model policy JO - Prehospital and disaster medicine A1 - Kahn, Christopher A. A1 - Koenig, Kristi L. A1 - Schultz, Carl H. SP - 462 EP - 464 VL - 32 IS - 4 N2 - Disaster responders are frequently emergency physicians (EPs). Effective response is enhanced by the strong support of home institutions and clear policies for backfill of regular duties. A group of disaster medicine responders and researchers worked with an academic department of emergency medicine to create a policy that addresses concerns of deploying physicians, colleagues remaining at the home institution, and administrators. This article describes the process and content of this policy development work. Kahn CA , Koenig KL , Schultz CH. Emergency physician disaster deployment: issues to consider and a model policy.
