| Summary: | "Emanating from a working group of the American Psychological Association, this comprehensive volume provides a blueprint for pandemic preparedness for health and mental health professionals. It reviews the actual experiences faced by practitioners during the current Covid crisis, and provides historical context of past health crises, such as the 1918 flu epidemic. Lessons learned from previous health disasters are utilized to provide guidelines and best practices for managing large scale health crises. The goal of this book is to offer the tools for health providers to mobilize, collaborate and provide effective and compassionate services. Relevant to psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, social workers and others, this volume is an invaluable resource for the present and for the inevitable pandemics to come."--Publisher's website. |
