Select ASPR TRACIE TA Responses

The ASPR TRACIE Assistance Center provides personalized support and responses to requests for information and technical assistance (TA). We answer a broad range of questions from all stakeholders – at the federal, state, regional, local, tribal, territory, non-profit, and for-profit levels. The type of requests that we receive are categorized as simple, standard, complex, or urgent depending on the scope of work, resources needed to complete the request, and time frame by which the request can be answered. Simple requests are typically requests for IT support or help with website navigation or functions. Examples of our standard, complex, and urgent requests and the ASPR TRACIE response are included below. TA responses marked with an asterisk (*) appear in more than one category.

Please note: the information in these responses are current as of their date of publication. Please contact ASPR TRACIE if you notice a broken link or would like access to a resource marked as "see attachment."

Audrey Mazurek Thank you Ms. Mitchell for your comment. ASPR TRACIE recently responded to a technical assistance request related to ACS sources of additional staff and we included your comment below in that response: https://files.asprtracie.hhs.gov/documents/aspr-tracie-ta---covid-19-acs-sources-of-additional-staff.pdf.

Megan Mitchell I don't understand how large groups of available practitioners are being left out of these plans. The physical therapist is qualified to mobilize patient, deep suction, teach and train in breathing strategies, strength train and most importantly get patient functional enough to return home. We are not going to have enough of any one discipline to cover both hospital systems let alone additional off-site locations. We need to include everyone who has useful skills.
