Access SHIC Rapid Response Corps Training and Resources

October 25, 2017 — Paul Sundberg

Do you have an action plan to follow in the event of a disease outbreak? As part of the development of the Swine Health Information Center's (SHIC) Rapid Response Program, several resources are now available online which may be useful in formulating your own response protocol.

Registration provides access to all materials. You can find them here. AASV members are invited and encouraged to explore the resources which include:

• SHIC Swine Disease Matrix
• Rapid Response to Emerging Disease Program Master Checklist
• Investigation and Summary Report Examples
• Investigation and Summary Report Templates
• Training Module Scripts

While Rapids Response Corps members will be required to complete the online training, the materials are open to all who are interested in the Rapid Response Program or wish to grow their knowledge of epidemiological investigation and processes.

Funded by America's pork producers to protect and enhance the health of the US swine herd, the Swine Health Information Center focuses its efforts on prevention, preparedness, and response. As a conduit of information and research, SHIC encourages sharing of its publications and research for the benefit of swine health. Forward, reprint, and quote SHIC material freely.
