• Tools developed by the RCRC to assess needs in emergencies. These are tailored for the use of National Societies and IFRC Emergency Response Tools such as Emergency Response Units and Surge personnel. 

• Rapid Public Health Situation Analysis Tool:

  • Context Analysis (Part A) - This is for NS elaborating DREF or EA/EPoA and for Surge Public Health Coordinators responding to a suspected/confirmed disease outbreak or following a crisis/disaster where there is a risk of a disease outbreak. It assists teams to design a community-based public health (non-clinical) auxiliary assistance to national and local health authorities in the country of intervention. It gathers information on the context and the existing capacity of the NS to respond to the outbreak. It should be completed by or with the assistance of a person with public health or clinical background. Complete Part B of this tool once data has been gathered for the context analysis. 

  • Information, knowledge, perceptions, and practices (Part B) -Complete part A of this tool prior to using this document. The data collected will help teams better understand issues on information and communication; knowledge, awareness and understanding; and perceptions and practices, about the disease of concern. Results should inform priority messaging based on identified gaps and should guide teams to supplement standardized messaging with tailored health education (e.g. if people understand symptoms but not transmission modes, messaging should focus on the latter; if people want to seek care in health facilities but they are not accessible, NS should avoid referring community members to those structures and work with the MoH to find alternatives). If there is more than one disease of concern, NS should seek answers separately for each disease. The tool may be used as an initial rapid assessment at the beginning of the operation, or both at the beginning (baseline) and at later stages for ongoing project monitoring purposes. 

• Rapid emergency health needs assessment tools (this document includes an overview of the purpose of the available tools, when and where to use them, and who should use them):
  • Tool 1 – Rapid secondary data review
    
    Process of desk-based data collection, synthesis, and analysis of relevant information available from various sources, including government, NGOs, media, UN agencies, international institutions. The data can inform preparedness measures and operational decision making. Information includes (1) pre-emergency information: population of interest, health care system, health situation (including mental health); (2) post-emergency information: type of emergency, general contributors, impact of the emergency on the population, including information on location, groups, humanitarian access, and basic health needs; and (3) response capacity: local (from authorities and non-governmental entities); international actors; and RCRC National Society.
  • Tool 2 - Rapid Health Assessment Form
    
    Essential information on (1) Demographics; (2) Health status (mortality, morbidity, EPI, malnutrition); and (3) Health services: availability and access.
  • Tool 3 – Health facility assessment form
    
    This is a tool to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the functioning of an individual health structure following an emergency. It includes general information and demographics in the area; staff; available services; detailed statistics on mortality/morbidity/surveillance; drugs and supplies; structure (building) and transport.
  • Tool 4 – Reference values for health needs assessments
    
    Reference norms for main health indicators in emergencies.
