Department of Health CITY OF BALTIMORE ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-SIXTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH 1960 BALTIMORE To the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore for the Year Ended December 31, 1960 The leaves were falling from the great oak at the meadow's edge. They were falling from all the trees. One branch of the oak reached high above the others and stretched far out over the meadow. Two leaves clung to its very tip. "It isn't the way it used to be," said one leaf to the other. • "No," the other leaf answered. "So many of us have fallen off tonight we're almost the only ones left on our branch." "You never know who's going to go next," said the first leaf. "Even when it was warm and the sun shone, a storm or a cloudburst would come sometimes, and many leaves were torn off, though they were st2ll young. You never know who's going to go next." "The sun seldom shines now," sighed the second leaf, "and when it does it gives no warmth. We must have warmth again." "Can it be true," said the first leaf,,."ean it really be true, that others come to take our places when we're gone and after them still others, and more and more?" "It is really true," whispered the second leaf. "We can't even begin to imagine it, it's beyond our powers." 'It makes me very sad,' added the first leaf. They were silent a while. Then the first leaf said quietly to herself,"Why must we fall? .. ." The second leaf asked, "What happens to us when we have fallen?" "We sink down . ." "What is under us?" The first leaf answered, "I don't know, some say one thing, some another, but nobody knows." The second leaf asked, "Do we feel anything, do we know anything about ourselves when we're down there?" The first leaf answered,"Who knows? Not one of all those down there has ever come back to tell us about it." They were silent again. Then the first leaf said tenderly to the other, "Don't worry so much about it, you're trembling." "That's nothing," the second leaf answered, "I tremble at the least thing now. I don't feel so sure of my hold as I used to." "Let's not talk any more about such things." said the first leaf. The other replied, "No, we'll let be. But—what else shall we talk about?" She was silent, but went on after a little while, "Which of us will go first?" "There's still plenty of time to worry about that," the other leaf assured her. "Let's remember how beautiful it was, how wonderful, when the sun came out and shone so warmly that we thought we'd burst with life. Do you remember? And the morning dew, and the mild and splendid nights. ." "Now the nights are dreadful," the second leaf complained, "and there is no end to them." "We shouldn't complain," said the first leaf gently. "We've outlived many, many others." "Have I changed much?" asked the second leaf, shyly but determinedly. "Not in the least," the first leaf assured her. "You only think so because I've got to be so yellow and ugly. But it's different in your case." "You're fooling me," the second leaf said. "No, really," the first leaf exclaimed eagerly. "believe me you're as lovely as the day you were born. Here and there may be a little yellow spot but it's hardly noticeable and only makes you handsomer, believe me." "Thanks," whispered the second leaf, quite touched. "I don't believe you, not altogether, but I thank you because you're so kind, you've always been 110 kind to me. I'm just beginning to understand how kind you are." "Hush," said the other leaf, and kept silent herself for she was too troubled to talk any more. Then they were both silent.' Hours passed. A moist wind blew, cold and hostile, through the tree-tops. "Alt, now," said the second leaf, "I. ." Then her voice broke off. She was torn from her place and spun down. Winter had come.

  • From the Factory to the Frontlines the Operation Warp Speed Strategy for Distributing a COVID-19 Vaccine
    From the Factory to the Frontlines The Operation Warp Speed Strategy for Distributing a COVID-19 Vaccine What This Strategy Aims to Do This report to Congress details a strategy to achieve the principal purpose and objective of Operation Warp Speed (OWS): ensuring that every American who wants to receive a COVID-19 vaccine can receive one, by delivering safe and effective vaccine doses to the American people beginning January 2021. The leadership of OWS has committed to being transparent with Congress, the media, and the American people. OWS has provided regular briefings on topics of interest to Congress and the media and will continue to provide updates and announcements as OWS reaches new milestones. Congress has been a vital partner in the all-of-America response to the COVID-19 pandemic. With support provided through emergency supplemental and flexible discretionary funding, OWS has now made strong progress toward a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine, with multiple candidates in Phase 3 clinical trials. Simultaneously, OWS and partners are developing a plan for delivering a safe and effective product to Americans as quickly and reliably as possible. Experts from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are leading vaccine development, while experts from the Department of Defense (DoD) are partnering with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other parts of HHS to coordinate supply, production, and distribution of vaccines. Successful implementation of the national COVID-19 vaccination program requires precise coordination across federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial governments and among many public and private partners.

  • Clinical Audit/Quality Improvement Projects Guidance for Professional
    Clinical Audit/Quality Improvement Projects Guidance For Professional Competence Scheme Prepared by Faculty of Public Health Medicine December 2012 1 KEY POINTS ON AUDIT FOR PUBLIC HEALTH . This document is produced by the Faculty of Public Health Medicine Ireland (FPHMI) to support and guide participants of the FPHMI Professional Competence Scheme (PCS) to achieve their requirement of completing one clinical audit / quality improvement project each year. This document is a guide for doctors practising public health medicine and who are either on the Specialist or General Division of the Register . All doctors must participate in professional competence . Each doctor must define his/her scope of practice . All doctors whose practice include both clinical and non‐clinical work should engage in both clinical audit and other quality improvement practices relevant to their scope of practice . Audit can be at individual, team, departmental or national level . Each doctor must actively engage in clinical audit / systematic quality improvement activity that relates directly to their practice. ‘The Medical Council’s Framework for Maintenance of Professional Competence Activities’ sets one clinical audit per year as the minimum target. The time spent on completing the audit is accounted for separately from other Continuing Professional Development (CPD) activities. It is estimated that the completion of one clinical audit will take approximately 12 hours of activity. The main challenges in undertaking audit in public health practice include o Lack of explicit criteria against which to measure audit o Timeframes for measuring outcomes which can be prolonged and thus process measures are more readily measured Can’t seem to format this box which is smaller than the text o Changing public health work programmes in Departments .

  • The High Achieving Governmental Health Department in 2020 As the Community Chief Health Strategist
    The High Achieving Governmental Health Department in 2020 as the Community Chief Health Strategist Public Health Leadership Forum This paper was prepared by RESOLVE as part of the Public Health Leadership Forum with funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. John Auerbach, Director of Northeastern University’s Institute on Urban Health Research, also put substantial time and effort into authoring the document with our staff. The concepts put forth are based on several working group session (See Appendix B for members) and are not attributable to any one participant or his/her organization. May 2014 The High Achieving Governmental Health Department in 2020 as the Community Chief Health Strategist Public Health Leadership Forum Background Local and state health departments need to adapt and evolve if governmental public health is to address emerging health demands, minimize current as well as looming pitfalls, and take advantage of new and promising opportunities. To succeed requires a view into the future. This paper provides that vision. And, importantly, it zeroes in on what a high achieving public health department of the future will be doing differently. It does so not with a comprehensive inventory of tasks but rather with a distillation of the most important new skills and activities essential to be high achieving and serve in the role of the community chief health strategist. A working group of public health practitioners and policy experts was convened by RESOLVE as part of the Public Health Leadership Forum with funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (See Appendix B for a list of members). The working group purposely set a time frame of public health in 2020 – just six years into the future – in order to look far enough ahead to provide a compelling beacon, while staying close enough to the present to emphasize the urgency of taking immediate steps to start the process of change and build the leadership necessary to be successful.

    “STRIVE FOR CLARITY, BUT ACCEPT AND UNDERSTAND AMBIGUITY. That phrase captures one way in which an educated person approaches the world and its challenges. Students who graduate from the University of Maryland have been exposed to the tools that allow them to put that perspective to work. Imparting such a perspective may be an ambitious project for undergraduate education, but to aim for anything less would be unworthy of a great university’s goals for its students. Thirteen years ago, Promises to Keep, a plan for undergraduate education at Maryland, articulated those goals so eloquently we repeat them here. Undergraduate education at Maryland “aims to provide students with a sense of identity and purpose, a concern for others, a sense of responsibility for the quality of life around them, a continuing eagerness for knowledge and understanding, and a foundation for a lifetime of personal enrichment.” As we learn with and from one another, we try to “develop human values,” “celebrate tolerance and fairness,” “contribute to the social conscience,” “monitor and assess private and collective assumptions,” and “recognize the glory, tragedy and humor of the human condition.” Your years at the University of Maryland can provide you with all the tools you need to accomplish these goals. Students here are “educated to be able to read with perception and pleasure, write and speak with clarity and verve, handle numbers and com pu ta tion proficiently, reason mathematically, generate clear questions and find probable arguments, reach substantiated conclusions and accept ambiguity.” AND WE ALSO HOPE YOU ENJOY THE JOURNEY.
