National Ebola Training and Education Center (NETEC)
In recognition of the complex nature of preparing the U. S. health care system to safely assess and care for patients with suspected and confirmed Ebola, ASPR and CDC seek to develop a National Ebola Training and Education Center (NETEC) that will offer state health departments, regional Ebola and special
pathogen treatment centers, state- and jurisdiction-based Ebola treatment centers, and assessment hospitals expertise, training, technical assistance, peer review, monitoring, recognition, and certification, if feasible.
The NETEC will build a comprehensive set of activities and deliverables for public health departments, U. S. health care providers, and facilities needed to safely and successfully identify, isolate, assess, transport, and treat patients with Ebola or persons under investigation for Ebola, and will develop and lead a national peer review and recognition program for regional Ebola and other special pathogen treatment centers and Ebola treatment centers.
Throughout the five-year project period, the NETEC will modify materials developed (e.g., curricula and templates) as the Ebola outbreak evolves and the science changes.
The NETEC will be comprised primarily of experts from health care institutions with direct experience in safely and successfully caring for patients with Ebola in the U.S.
