Abstract |
The title of the editorial referenced here was published in Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness Reference James, Benjamin, Burkle, Gebbie, Kelen and Subbarao 1 (DMPHP) in 2010. At that time, the American Medical Association (AMA) was still the journal's publisher and served as a philosophical cornerstone for the work we have since been engaged in which is evolving the discipline of disaster medicine and public health. Now 4 years later, the DMPHP is the official journal of the Society for Disaster Medicine and Public Health (SDMPH) and published by Cambridge University Press, and we believe it is time to revisit the referenced editorial to both update what progress has been made toward achieving our objectives and to note changes to or deviations from our original goals. As we review in a sequential manner the main elements of the 2010 editorial, please note that in X years from now another iteration will be necessary, as this current review is meant to be a living document, defining an evolving process that needs to embrace change and be informed by you, the reader. One note for consistency, in 2010 we referred to the discipline as disaster medicine and public health preparedness; currently, disaster medicine and public health (DMPH) has been adopted as the discipline name.
