• Description:
  The Medical Countermeasures (MCM) Coordinator plays an integral role in ensuring their organization has the capability to respond to any emergency requiring the dispensing of MCM. Natural disasters, infectious diseases, and the threat of bioterrorism challenge public health’s capacity to swiftly respond using quality, proven plans. Dispensing MCM, a key role in public health, has the added burden of limited response time if lives are to be saved. Because the role of the MCM Coordinator is a daunting job for anyone— but especially a new coordinator— NACCHO developed this New Medical Countermeasure Coordinator Start-Up Guide.
  
  This fact sheet was developed by the NACCHO MCM Workgroup. Funding for the workgroup is supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Cooperative Agreement #5U38OT000172-03. NACCHO is grateful for this support. The contents do not necessarily represent the official views of the CDC.
