Respiratory Therapy May 2008 5-1 Facility Resource Assessment (Tool) Page 1 of 13 Chapter 5 – Supplies, Equipment, Pharmaceuticals Hospital Surge Capacity Toolkit Overview and Instructions This assessement tool can be completed prior to or during a surge emergency to assess facility resources. Once completed, the data compiled can be utilized in various ways to manage the surge emergency. Examples of supporting sections include (but are not limited to): 1-4, Transportation 2-6, Surge Plan Phases 1-5 (Tool) 5-2, Hospital Mutual Aid System MOU (Model) Please follow the instructions below carefully before completing each section of the FRAT: 1. Please read Standard Assumptions before beginning. 2. Enter information in the shaded boxes. 3. Answer all questions to the best of your ability. Feel free to comment on questions or answers that require explanation. 4. Please return your portion of the survey to the Safety/Emergency Management Manager upon completion. Standard Assumptions The purpose of these assumptions is to create a common baseline for reporting. 1 Measure resources only under hospital control. 2. Do not expect mutual aid from outside your facility for at least 96 hours. 3. Assume an emergency proclamation is in place and that licensing and regulatory requirements have been modified. 4. Reported surge capacity must be that which exists above average daily occupancy (census). (For the purposes of this survey, “average daily occupancy” (census) should be computed as the average daily number of occupied beds of the preceding year, 2007). 5. Report for inpatient care areas only. 6. Report for two classes of surge beds: a. b. Critical Care/Monitored Beds General Medical-Surgical Beds (Unmonitored) 7. Use austere nurse-to-patient staffing ratio of 1:5 for Critical Care Beds (Monitored Beds) and 1:20 for Other Medical-Surgical Beds (Unmonitored Beds). 8. Assume need to self-sustain care within the facility for a minimum of 96 hours without re-supply of equipment, supplies, or staff. 9. Assume 40% of staff will not report to work due to inability to get there, illness, or safety concerns.

MGMT.) HOSPITAL NAME: _______________________________ SECTION 1. DATE: ________________ PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) Additional Assumption: Hospital Personnel Requiring PPE: All employees of the hospital: medical staff (both fulltime and part-time), per diem workers, and independent physicians caring for patients at the facility. Include medical transport providers employed by hospital. Use the following definition for PPE: Level C Protection – Includes all of the following: powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR), hooded chemical-resistant clothing, gloves, and boots. HPP (formerly HRSA) recommends that adequate PPE be available to protect current and additional healthcare personnel during an incident and be tied directly to the number of healthcare personnel needed to support surge capacity for beds. The surge goal for acute infectious disease is 1 per 2,000 population above daily census. At a minimum, each hospital should have 10 Level C units, including PAPRs, suit, gloves, and boots. Please estimate the following: Total # 1. Total number of hospital personnel and independent physicians caring for patients at the facility requiring PPE. 2. Number of powered air-purifying respirators (PAPRs). 3. Number of N95 masks used on a daily basis. 4. Do you have a protocol for N95 mask distribution and use during an emergency? Circle: Yes No 5.
