Abstract

Disasters can strike at any time, with or without warning. While all hospitals have emergency preparedness plans, anticipating every effect of a crisis on the hospital, staff, and surrounding community can be difficult. This special report will examine the response of hospitals to three disasters--an acid leak in California, a tornado in Virginia, and the summer flooding in the Midwest--and the lessons learned from those crises.
