Hospitals – one of Priority Actions

28. Topic 1: Safe Hospital Campaign
Emphasized importance of “making
hospitals safe from disasters” as a
key activity to reduce underlying
disaster risk factors by ensuring
that all new hospitals are built
with a level of resilience that
strengthens their capacity to
remain functional in disaster
situations and implement
mitigation measures to
reinforce existing health
facilities, particularly those
providing primary health care.

“Hospitals Safe from Disasters - Reduce Risk,
Protect Health Facilities, Save Lives”

41. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
A “SAFE HOSPITAL” during disaster is operationally
defined
as a health facility whose services remain
accessible and functioning at maximum capacity
and
in the same facility or infrastructure, during and
immediately following the impact of a disaster.

42. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
SAFE HOSPITALS
hospitals that have the capacity and capability to remain
functional and operational during and even after disaster
those whose health services remain accessible and
functioning at maximum capacity during and immediately
after disasters/emergencies
they must be physically resilient and able to remain
operational and continue providing vital health services

43. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
A safe hospital
will not collapse in disasters, killing patients and
staff
will be able to continue to function and provide
critical services in emergencies
will be organized, with contingency plans in place
and health personnel trained to keep the network
operational

44. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
Special Considerations in a “Safe Hospital” Concept
The most expensive hospital is the one that fails:
 Hospitals and health facilities represent an
enormous investment for any country.
 Their destruction imposes major economic
burdens.

45. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
Special Considerations in a “Safe Hospital” Concept
Disasters are a health and a social issue:
Not only is health treatment critical in the
aftermath of a disaster,
damage to health facilities and systems
affects development long into the future.

46. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
Special Considerations in a “Safe Hospital” Concept
Protecting critical health facilities from disasters is
possible and cost effective:
Including risk reduction in the design and
construction of all new health facilities, and
reducing vulnerability in existing health
facilities through selecting and retrofitting the
most critical facilities,
costs less than might be expected.

47. Topic 2: Concepts of a Safe Hospital
Special Considerations in a “Safe Hospital” Concept
The health workforce must be agents of disaster risk
reduction:
Health workers are central to identifying
potential health risks from natural hazards and
promoting personal and community risk
reduction measures.
