The SRDRS - Southern Regional Disaster Response System for and Serious Communicable Diseases Program at Emory University are hosting the ECHO for Region 4 Readiness Program February - October 2026. The purpose of this program is to build a nationwide network of national, regional, and state leaders and practitioners focused on improving emergency preparedness and response through peer learning, equitable systems thinking, and real-time collaborative problem solving.

Date: September 29, 2026
Time: 12:00 - 1:00 pm ET

Join us to hear from Madeleine Nuebel, MOCC Project Manager with the Southern Regional Disaster Response System HHS Region 4, and Angela Kik, RMOCC - STARS Implementation Specialist from the Kentucky Department of Health, on how RMOCCs are transforming disaster healthcare patient coordination and why they are becoming a critical component of healthcare disaster preparedness and response nationwide. Gain practical understanding of how RMOCCs support situational awareness, coordinate patient movement across health systems and state lines when needed, and help preserve access to specialized care during large-scale disasters.

Whether you are a hospital executive, emergency department leader, transport center leader/coordinator, EMS professional, healthcare coalition partner, emergency manager, public health, trauma program leader, ESF-8 preparedness coordinator, or healthcare administrator, this webinar will provide valuable insight into one of the most important emerging capabilities in regional disaster healthcare preparedness.

What an incredible few days at the MATRC Summit 2026 in Virginia last week (Aug 10-12, 2026)! 💙

The Southern Regional Disaster Response System (SRDRS) for HHS Region 4 was honored to have Stephanie Payne, SRDRS Disaster Telemedicine & Pediatric Project Manager, to share about two of our Disaster Virtual Care (DVC) initiatives through posters and brief presentations on (1) our soon-to-be-completed Disaster Virtual Care Model 1.0 for Disaster Shelters (GP - General Population) and (2) the newly released Disaster MRC Telehealth Strike Team Model 1.0, proudly co-developed and co-presented with Suleima Salgado of the Southeastern Telehealth Resource Center (SETRC).

But the best part? Everyone that was in the room at the Summit! Stephanie had the opportunity to connect with so many incredible telehealth innovators and advocates who are thinking creatively about how virtual care can support our communities.
These conversations remind us that the future of virtual care - and disaster virtual care - won't be built by one organization. It will be built through collaboration, information sharing, and a willingness to ask, "What else is possible?" and "How can we find our way to YES?"

Want to learn more about our Disaster Virtual Care models or other SRDRS DVC initiatives? We'd love to connect with you! Email us at [email protected]

The Emory University Serious Communicable Diseases Program (SCDP) and the Southern Regional Disaster Response System Region 4 are hosting the ECHO for Region 4 Readiness Program now through October 2026. The purpose of this program is to build a regional network of state and local healthcare, EMS, Public Health, and emergency management leaders and practitioners focused on improving emergency healthcare preparedness and response through peer learning, equitable systems thinking, and real-time collaborative problem solving.

Our upcoming ECHO session on September 3, 2026, from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm ET, will discuss communication in an era of doubt beyond the single overriding communication objective (SOCO).

This session explores strategies for effective risk and crises of communication in an environment where public trust, information quality, and institutional credibility may be challenged. Presenters will move beyond the traditional single overriding communication objective, or SOCO, to discuss approaches for listening, tailoring messages, addressing uncertainty, and supporting clear, credible communication before and during high-consequence infectious disease events.

🚨 Big news for disaster healthcare response! 🚨

The Southern Regional Disaster Response System (SRDRS) for HHS Region 4 and the Southeastern Telehealth Resource Center (SETRC) are pleased to jointly announce the release of the Disaster MRC Telehealth Strike Team Model 1.0, an operational model that provides Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) units guidance to integrating and using deployable telehealth capabilities to help mitigate medical surge, preserve hospital resources, and strengthen community regional disaster response.

When disaster strikes, this model puts trained MRC volunteers in the community as a telehealth facilitator with a portable telehealth backpack, connecting patients to remote physicians in real time. Patients get care where they are in a disaster. Hospitals, emergency departments, and EMS preserve capacity.

The model was tested in partnership with APP MRC at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina in March 2026 along with local and regional partners. Every volunteer understood their role in this model, and 94 percent agreed the model could reduce medical surge and improve access to care during disaster incidents.

The three resources below are available now for any MRC unit ready to explore adopting the model.
