Introduction to the Disaster Available Supplies in Hospitals (DASH) Tool

Hospitals deal with stressed supply chains every day. Just-in-time inventory is common, and hospitals run the risk of not having enough supplies when a disaster strikes. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response Technical Resources, Assistance Center, and Information Exchange (ASPR TRACIE) and Healthcare Ready developed the Disaster Available Supplies in Hospitals (DASH) tool in collaboration with the Health Industry Distributors Association, the Region VII Disaster Health Response Ecosystem, and other subject matter experts to address this challenge. DASH is an online, interactive tool for hospital emergency planners and supply chain staff to estimate supplies that may need to be immediately available during various emergencies based on their hospital’s characteristics. Speakers in this webinar will provide an overview and demonstration of DASH and share information on how it may be used from both the hospital and supply chain perspective.
