PANDEMIC INFLUENZA

Swine flu clinical package (16th June 2009)
The swine flu clinical package is a set of tools for use in a pandemic situation by frontline healthcare professionals.

The tools have been designed to be used during the phase of a pandemic when there is increased demand for clinical care and are designed to support and empower GPs, community nurses, midwives, health visitors, ambulance crews, emergency department doctors, nurses and those working outside their usual specialty area.

The Flu Pandemic Game: a business continuity training resource (23rd June 2009)
The Flu Pandemic Game was originally developed by Camden Primary Care Trust using NHS resources in partnership with Camden Council. It was designed as a training resource for their staff and to help managers of local businesses and voluntary organisations develop their business continuity plans.

The Department of Health has adapted the game and there are two versions available, one specifically for use in GP Practices and the other for use by healthcare and other related organisations.
