Webinar:
Medical Ethics and Preparedness in Emergencies

Date/Time: Tuesday, January 31st, 2 pm ET / 11 am PT
Speaker: Sheri Fink, MD PhD

“Emergency preparedness is all about facing our vulnerabilities, including planning for worst-case scenarios.” ~ Sheri Fink, M.D., Ph.D.

Pulitzer prize-winning author Sheri Fink combines a doctor’s perspective with thorough research to show the weaknesses in healthcare emergency planning. From her ground-breaking book, Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital, to her research on Ebola and Hurricane Sandy she looks at how prepared our healthcare system is to face serious emergencies.

We invite you to join us for a thought-provoking discussion covering Hurricanes Katrina, Hurricane Sandy, war zones, disaster areas, and how ethics weave into emergency preparedness as first responders face impossible decisions.

This webinar is live only and will not be recorded.
