1. Central MN HPC 2018 hcid exercise Controller training

2. Introduction
The main goal of this exercise is that facilities/staff recognize a potential infectious disease and take the appropriate measures to limit exposure of the patient to other patients and staff.
This exercise is adaptable for each facility – some may chose to do the exercise as a tabletop discussion, others may want to make it more functional.
We encourage your facility to interact with local resources as they see necessary such as LPH, EMS, or others.

5. What does this mean?
We will be doing an exercise that has very specific goals and requirements
