 The development of the Public Health Emergency Operation (PHE Op) Plan was part of the efforts towards strengthening the capacity and capability of the Environmental Health Services, Ministry of Health, Brunei Darussalam; in executing its scope of work, in particular relating to public health emergencies including disasters.
In developing this Plan, experiences gained through managing various small-scale outbreaks and public health threats as well as in our routine day to day activities are taken into consideration. In addition, current best practices and guidelines available regionally and internationally had also been reviewed, adapted and adopted as and where appropraite.
Following the development, with the aim of increasing understanding, fostering confidence as well assessing its appropriateness, the Department had conducted training sessions. These sessions had in turn provided the opportunity to identify gaps and allowed us to improve the Plan further.
The Plan will continue to be reviewed from time to time, tested periodically and updated accordingly in line with current developments in the areas of public health emergency management.
PHE Op Plan can be view and download from the Ministry of Health, Brunei Darussalam website at http://www.moh.gov.bn
