The New York City (NYC) Office of Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) and NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) Healthcare Emergency Preparedness Program (HEPP) have collaborated to provide a second training to prepare NYC's funeral directors specifically for mass fatality management during a pandemic influenza outbreak (PI). This training is supported by Grant Number U3REP080085-01-00 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of NYC's emergency disaster preparedness efforts to develop decedent surge capacity in NYC.

The purpose of this training is to inform funeral directors of the NYC OCME's plan to manage large numbers of decedents during a pandemic influenza outbreak and to provide guidance with regard to how a PI event may affect their ability to respond to decedent management.

We are offering three sessions. Participants should only sign-up for one session.
