Due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the Tokyo Metropolitan government has been forced to expand their acute health-care capacity corresponding to infectious diseases within a short period. Responding to this situation, health emergency and disaster experts of the Tokyo Disaster Medical Assistance Team took the initiative in creating a brief education course. We established the course for expanding infectious disease care capacity by a dedicated hands-on lecture for health professionals who are unfamiliar with infectious disease care in ordinary circumstances. Our lecture included the typical course of COVID-19, use of personal protective equipment, environmental sterilization, medical-ward zoning, and safe caregiving. Hospitals that received customized lectures reported by means of a questionnaire that the lectures were well suited to their needs. Currently, the health-care system in Tokyo has increased its capacity to meet the demand and has not been affected by COVID-19. Our experience shows that health emergency and disaster experts can assist hospitals in crisis by providing educational materials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/dmp.2020.264","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,27]],"date-time":"2020-07-27T07:44:43Z","timestamp":1595835883000},"page":"e46-e48","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Maximizing Health-Care Capacity in Response to COVID-19 Outbreak: Rapid Expansion Through Education by Health Emergency and Disaster Experts"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8872-2192","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Soichiro","family":"Kato","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yasuhiko","family":"Miyakuni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshitaka","family":"Inoue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshihiro","family":"Yamaguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1935789320002645_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/anae.15072"},{"key":"S1935789320002645_ref8","unstructured":"8.
