Hospital Pandemic Influenza Planning Checklist
The Hospital Pandemic Influenza Planning Checklist helps hospitals assess and improve their preparedness for responding to pandemic influenza. Because of differences among hospitals (e.g., characteristics of the patient population, size of the hospital/community, scope of services), each hospital will need to adapt this checklist to meet its unique needs and circumstances.
January 2005 HepTalk Listserv
Welcome to the January 2005 edition of the Listserv. There are four parts to this edition: 1. a list of Hepatitis C Coordinators for all states with HepTalk participants; 2.

A funding opportunity which may be interesting to some HepTalk participants.
September 2006 HepTalk Listserv
Our concentration for this month (September) and next month (October) is Resources for Effective Risk Assessment. This is a primary focus of the HepTalk project, and one on which we are continuously scouting out new resources. Some of the literature and research about effective risk assessment focuses on HIV and/or gay and populations, but is also relevant for hepatitis and for a broader population.
