  • Schedule presentations and other educational activities with healthcare and community partners.
  • Schedule and assist with the organization and documentation of internal meetings and trainings.
  • Maintain and monitor ACD's inventory of testing, mitigation, and outreach supplies, including storage location, expiration tracking, and placing additional purchase requests per DDC and PDPH specifications.
  • Coordinate the distribution of testing, mitigation, outreach, and medical countermeasure supplies in collaboration with other ACD or DDC staff.
  • Organize and conduct data intake support for vaccination, chemoprophylaxis, and testing clinics in the community.
  • Assemble materials for response clinics, outreach events, and mailings.
  • Conduct investigation interviews by telephone, in-person visit, or medical record review when needed.
  • Participate in emergency preparedness exercises along with training for potential surge support staff.
  • Participate in debriefings and contribute to the development of after-action reports.
  • Support other communicable disease surveillance and response activities as needed.

SKILLS:
  • Attention to detail and excellent organizational skills
  • Computer skills are necessary and should include familiarity with Word, Excel, and REDCap, or at least the ability to learn these software programs.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to interact appropriately and effectively with a wide range of people
  • Experience conducting telephone-based interviews is advantageous.
  • The applicant will be expected to work independently and as part of a team.
