HHS Workforce Toolkit and Preparedness Gateway for Stakeholders

This week, the Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary of Preparedness and Response (ASPR) launched a COVID-19 Workforce Virtual Toolkit to help state and local healthcare decision makers expand workforce flexibilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Toolkit provides guidance for states on funding flexibilities, liability protections, workforce training, best practices, and peer-to-peer communication. It also helps states administer these flexibilities to increase frontline medical staff and care for patients at local hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities. This effort is part of the ASPR Technical Resources, Assistance Center, and Information Exchange (TRACIE), a healthcare emergency preparedness information gateway that provides information and resources for stakeholders through participation in a public-private information sharing exchange that requires registration and approval.
