Are Your Prepared? Hospital Emergency Management Guidebook

HEMGThis book serves as a roadmap for evaluating a healthcare organization’s preparedness to provide safe care, treatment, and services during various kinds of emergencies, including natural disasters (such as floods, fires), unintentional disasters (such as power outages), and manmade disasters (such as bombings).

Developed with J. Christopher Farmer, Col, USAF, MC, from the Office of Applied Solutions in Operational Medicine in the Air Force Surgeon General’s Office, this book provides vital information about basic emergency management principles and offers in-depth explanations of strategies for providing safe care, treatment, and services in emergency conditions.

Special features include:

  • Checklists at the end of each chapter enable organizations to assess their preparedness for responding to emergencies
  • Case studies that demonstrate how real-life organizations continued to provide safe care, treatment, and services during natural disasters, unintentional disasters, and manmade disasters
  • Appendix at the back of the book listing the Joint Commission hospital emergency management standards and elements of performance (EPs), all of which are addressed by the book’s contents
