Case 4: Bioterrorism -- Community Preparedness (Page 6 of 49)
Phase One: Thinking About the Issues
Q2. Who has an interest in or is a stakeholder in community preparedness in the event of a bioterrorism event?
Q2a. Which community institutions are affected? And Why?
From a health services research perspective, there are many issues that need to be addressed when attempting to answer this question.

Make a list of stakeholders you can identify and think of how their need for information might affect how and what you retrieve for each stakeholder.
