| Abstract: | Historical Prospective Early Hospital Preparedness Prior to the events of 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, traditional hospital preparedness planning was focused on mass casualties and emergency department readiness. Very little planning focused on scenarios in which the hospital was directly impacted by the disaster, impeding the ability to continue care. Internal and community-level plannings were limited in scope, and concepts such as the hospital incident command system (HICS) were not employed. © 2014 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
