Abstract
Since the identification of the virus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1976, the total number of persons suffered from the Ebola outbreak, is 24,282 people by February 2015, including 9,976 recorded lethal cases. In August 2014, the Director-General of the World Health Organization had decided to declare the outbreak of hemorrhagic fever caused by Ebola virus as an emergency in the field of public healthcare, which has an international importance. Existing risk requires a higher level of readiness of personnel in the medical organizations of the region to take measures on localization and elimination of the possible epidemic focus of the disease. Despite the fact that the sanitary and epidemiological measures, which should be implemented at the national and regional levels, are defined by the guidelines «Organization and carrying out primary antiepidemic measures in case of detecting an ill person (corps) with suspected infectious diseases that cause emergencies in the field of sanitary and epidemiological wellbeing of the population», healthcare workers make an assumption on the need of their provision with the algorithms of carrying out primary antiepidemic measures. To increase the readiness of the personnel for work in an epidemic focus, there are prepared the algorithms of carrying out antiepidemic measures in case of detecting an ill person (corps) by the level of responsibility of the medical staff (doctor, head of the department, nurse, charge nurse, head physician, deputy chief clinical director). Standardized forms used in antiepidemic work were worked out. There had been identified the quantity of information data to be transfer to the head of medical organization when an infectious disease, that causes an emergency in the field of sanitary and epidemiological wellbeing, is detected. Developed documents were gathered in the integrated folder, their storage is organized in stuffrooms, nurses stations and on workplaces of employees of the administrative services. Conclusions. The subsequent control showed that the specialists of medical organizations in the presence of a set of working materials for the work in an epidemic focus determine the list of antiepidemic measures on localization of epidemic focus and the sequence of their execution without difficulties.
