Public Health Preparedness Database

Welcome to the Public Health Preparedness Database. This website contains a searchable database of exercises used to evaluate public health preparedness. The website and database were developed under contract #282-00-0005 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Public Health Emergency Preparedness (HHS-OPHEP).

The materials contained in this website were designed to help state and local public health officials identify and evaluate exercises to be used in preparedness activities in their local areas.

The website is a living tool that will be expanded over the coming months to include additional exercises as they become available and to feature reports, tools, and resources to support preparedness activities.

The website contains:

  • a searchable database of public health preparedness exercises (includes examples of selected exercises)
  • public health preparedness tools and documents
  • evaluation criteria to be used in evaluating an exercise
