Summary

To develop training materials for use during Point of Dispensing (POD) exercises, training sessions, and POD operations for the Fort Mohave Indian Tribe. The training materials will be designed to provide just-in-time training for volunteer staff, whether in actual emergency situations or in exercises, and will also be available as community public education materials. The final product can be used at the discretion of the Tribe for planning, training, traffic control, security and education functions through standard DVD playback.

The materials will be designed as a walk-in throughput training video for general POD site management, which may be used by POD managers to dispense medical countermeasures of antiviral medication for pandemic influenza to the local population within 48 hours. Video components may include interviews, simulation models, narrated text, and other footage available from the Centers for Disease Control, state and local health organizations, and other video content providers.
