Presentation: Healthcare Cyber Security & Resilience

Elisa introduced Paula Scalingi from the Bay Area Center for Regional Disaster Resilience, a nationally-known expert on infrastructure interdependencies. Paula provided details on her expertise with cyber resilience gained from senior management positions in federal government and research. Paula detailed known threats to healthcare IT systems and urged hospitals to thoroughly assess their system’s resilience to data breaches. Given the hot market for healthcare information and the extensive range of IT-related vulnerabilities, IT security should be a top priority in every hospital. Paula provided recent examples of healthcare cyber security breaches including the extremely high costs resulting from attacks. In closing, she provided some best practices and timely advice about how to obtain quality security technical assistance. Paula also offered to provide 1:1 guidance to anyone interested in learning more about increasing their hospital’s cyber resilience. Her contact information, biography, and presentation are attached. Presentation: Contra Costa Hazardous Materials Program Per Marcelle Indelicato’s recommendation, Maria Duazo, the HazMat Team Leader for Contra Costa Health Services, joined the meeting to provide information on the services provided by her response team. She encouraged hospitals to take greater advantage of HazMat responders for internal incidents. In addition, she recommended 911 callers immediately advise the dispatcher of a hazardous materials situation to ensure the response team is notified quickly. Apparently, the protocol places the hazardous materials question at the end of the list and so

waiting to be asked about a HazMat situation may create an unnecessary delay in the teams’ response. Maria provided a comprehensive overview of the HazMat incident response, staffing and training for the team, and available resources (see attached). She highlighted her team’s preparations for potential hazards which may arise from refinery or pipeline incidents. Maria remarked that freeway transport of hazardous materials is the most common threat to our communities. To prepare for such an incident, she requested that hospitals drill for potential lockdown situations. The slide deck for Maria’s presentation is attached and questions may be directed to her via email at Maria.Duazo@hsd.cccounty.us. Workplace Violence Members were asked to discuss workplace violence and consider participating in a joint-meeting with hospital executives to forward efforts to comply with the latest CAL OSHA regulations. Elisa noted that executives in attendance at the latest Section Meeting expressed interest in collaboratively addressing the issue of workplace violence. Those present affirmed their interest in securing resources for staff education and training and were encouraged that executive members had expressed support for same. Future Meeting Topics

• An update from CHA on workplace violence and CAL OSHA regulations • Pipeline safety and locations • Neonatal, pediatric and perinatal disaster preparedness

Next Meeting Wednesday, May 18, 2016 from 1:00pm to 4:00pm, at John Muir Medical Center, Walnut Creek.

BAY AREA CENTER FOR REGIONAL DISASTER RESILIENCE Dr. Scalingi established the Bay Area Center for Regional Disaster Resilience (BACRDR), a non-profit (Section 501(c) (3), in April 2011 to raise awareness and empower cross-sector/discipline and multi-jurisdiction action to address all-hazards disasters; health, safety, economic, environmental, and societal consequences; and preparedness gaps and improvement measures.

Since then, she has assisted stakeholders across the 12-County Bay Area to collectively move toward regional and community resilience through information sharing and collaboration, education and exercises, and providing expertise to develop and implement cooperative activities. Since its creation, BACRDR has built a Resilient Bay Area Coalition of over a thousand diverse organizations that focus on all-hazards resilience, developing a number of workshops and exercises on disaster recovery, infrastructure interdependencies, and situational awareness, a Stakeholder Forum on Military Support to Civil Authorities with Cal OES and the California National Guard, a Stakeholder Golden Guardian 2013 Exercise Objectives Meeting, a Superstorm Sandy Lessons Learned for the Bay Area event, a Climate Change Roundtable of local, state, and federal agencies, utilities, and other stakeholders on flood impacts to critical infrastructure and an energy and lifelines restoration exercise with Alameda County and PG&E; and a Bay Area Community Health Resilience Forum and follow-on regional Geriatric Resilience Roundtable.

Dr. Scalingi's most recent activities include a Bay Area Community Health Resilience Exercise Project with the California Department of Public Health, Bay Area Integrated Weather Resiliency Roundtable with the National Weather Service; a Regional Cyber Resilience Workshop with U.S. DHS, and a workshop and follow-on roundtable as part of an initiative on interdependent lifelines/critical infrastructure risk, resiliency, and information-sharing.

BACKGROUND Previously, she was Director, Center for Regional Disaster Resilience of the Pacific Northwest Economic Region, a consortium of 10 states & provinces. Dr. Scalingi has organized more than 100 workshops and other training events, including 17 regional exercises. Dr. Scalingi was Director of: U.S. DOE’s Office of Critical Infrastructure Protection, the Decision and Information Sciences Division at Argonne National Laboratory and ANL's Infrastructure Assurance Center. She was technical liaison to the President’s Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection, overseeing reports on water supply, emergency services, energy, legal/regulatory issues and R&D. She served as Director of Public Information for the U.S. ACDA, on the U.S. Congress House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, and as analyst for the CIA. Dr. Scalingi has served on the Board of San Francisco Community Agencies Responding to Disaster and as First Vice Chair of the Infrastructure Security Partnership (TISP), a national engineering association. She led development and was principal author of TISP's 2006 and 2011 Regional Disaster Resilience Guides, twice receiving TISP's Volunteer of the Year Award.
