    Job Description



    Description


    –>

    The mission of WHO's Health Emergencies Programme (The Programme) is to build the capacities of Member States to safely manage health emergency risks and, when national capacities are overwhelmed, to lead and coordinate the international response to mitigate, contain, provide effective relief and recovery to affected populations. The Programme supports countries and coordinates international action, to prevent, prepare for, detect, timely respond to, and recover from outbreaks and other public health emergencies. The objectives of the Country Readiness Strengthening Department is to achieve effective operational readiness and response for the most imminent and serious health emergencies. The department supports Member States to develop, establish and finance comprehensive readiness plans for health security that are facilitated by strategic partnerships across all relevant sectors. Operational readiness is critical for countries, communities and organizations to have the capability to be able to respond immediately and appropriately to health emergencies from any hazard when required. Strengthening operational readiness is based on a continuous process of assessing current risk based on the identification of hazards with the highest likelihood and severity against the level of existing capacities and vulnerabilities. This is a continuous process followed by the assessment of readiness capabilities and the acceleration of targeted actions at trigger for an imminent threat to ensure an efficient emergency response. Readiness is a status of specific capabilities to quickly and appropriately respond when required to mitigate the impact of specific risk(s) and is built upon preparedness. The Health Care Readiness (HCR) Unit works on end-to-end processes covering all emergency management cycles, to enhance preparedness, operational readiness and response measures. This includes the development of technical infection prevention control and clinical care standards, norms, standards, tools and guidelines; also covers the processes for health emergency workforce, surge capacities and quality assurance systems and procedures. The unit's work is at the core of the safe and scalable care subsystem to build core capacities of Member States to ensure they have systems in place ensuring the right working conditions and standards for health workforce as well as capacity to deploy surge workforce when needs arise. The unit works with several networks at international, regional and country level including academia to bring partners together for norm setting, advancing research and innovation, capacity strengthening and rapid deployment of health care experts for surge capacity. Agility and operational readiness are critical to provide both immediate, short-term safe and quality care to reduce the loss of life and prevent long-term disability in different public health emergency scenarios.
