摘要
2014 年西非爆发埃博拉病毒疾病,促使非政府组织和英国机构间联合工作队(包括英国国防医疗服务局(DMS)人员)部署到塞拉利昂。其中一些军事人员与塞拉利昂共和国武装部队(RSLAF)建立了伙伴关系,这是国防医疗参与(DHE)的一个范例。使用军事分析和规划工具有助于在时间和资源严重紧张的情况下制定稳健而灵活的计划。成功的关键在于 DHE 合作伙伴之间的相互尊重,同时始终保持东道国的主导地位。这个例子中的 DHE 比非政府组织更具优势。本文介绍了从塞拉利昂共和国武装部队-英国 DMS 伙伴关系中获得的可供未来 DHE 借鉴的经验。
The 2014 West Africa Ebola crisis: lessons from UK Defence Healthcare Engagement in Sierra Leone.
The 2014 West Africa Ebola virus disease outbreak prompted the deployment to Sierra Leone of non-governmental organisations and the UK Joint Inter-Agency Taskforce including personnel from the UK Defence Medical Services (DMS). Some of these military personnel partnered with the Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces (RSLAF) as an example of Defence Healthcare Engagement (DHE).UK DMS mentors assisted RSLAF to plan and upscale Ebola treatment units. Use of military analysis and planning tools facilitated robust and flexible plans to be produced while under significant time and resource constraints. Macrosimulation exercises enabled large numbers to be trained and standard operating procedures to be developed.Fundamental to success was a mutual respect between the DHE partners while maintaining host nation primacy throughout. DHE in this example offered advantages over non-governmental organisations. Transferable lessons for future DHE from the RSLAF-UK DMS partnership are described in this paper.
