Hospital Disaster Planning and Response

Threats of bioterrorist attacks, emerging new epidemics pandemics and large-scale disasters have greatly affirmed the need for Hospital Disaster Planning in recent years. Clas Consulting has the experience and knowledge to help hospitals effectively prepare for a diversity of potential hazards, whether natural or man-made.

Our Approach to Hospital Disaster Planning Includes:

  • Business continuity planning
  • Determining maximum surge capacity
  • Assessing medical preparedness for a variety of potential health threats, i.e. the availability of life-saving vaccinations
  • Meeting the requirements of special-needs patients such as children and dependent-care populations
  • Coping with “worried well” citizens who are anxious about whether or not they have contracted a disease or virus
  • Cost considerations of caring for victims in a large-scale emergency
  • Identifying regional resources, which can be mobilized to help manage a crisis

During a widespread public health crisis, every second counts. Clas Consulting helps organizations protect the health, safety and well-being of their citizens by putting a sound Disaster Plan in place before an event strikes.
