people structures or economic assists and which may
cause a disaster” .They could be either manmade or
naturally occurring in our environment.

,which increase the susceptibility of a community to
the impact of hazards.
3. Capacity : Capacity is the combination of all the
strength and resources available within a community
,society ,or Organization that can reduce the level of
risk or effects of a disaster .
4.Risk :Is the probability of harmful consequences or
expected losses resulting from interaction between

immediate needs.
2.Infrastructure limitations.
3.Inadequate hazard preparation.
4.Limitation transport capabilities.
5.Multiple agencies responding.
6.Hospital Resources overwhelmed.
Aims of triage
