Regional Response: How Las Vegas Public Health Agencies Managed a Highly Vulnerable Community During the Pandemic
Clark County, Nevada, where Las Vegas is located, was identified as one of the most vulnerable regions for the COVID-19 pandemic. The Southern Nevada Health District (SNHD) led response efforts in this region. In this episode of Leading Las Vegas, we interview the SNHD Office of Public Health Preparedness Manager, Jeff Quinn, and SNHD Public Health Preparedness Supervisor, Misty Robinson.
Our guests discuss a wide range of topics related to COVID-19, including the financial burden the pandemic created in the region and for their agency, the mental stress created by COVID-19, and ways that the pandemic will continue to have an impact for years to come. In addition, Mr. Quinn and Ms. Robinson discuss characteristics needed to be a strong leader, and detail lessons learned that will be helpful for future leaders.
