J Bus Contin Emer Plan. 2015 Spring;8(4):295-8.
During emergencies, the health system will be overwhelmed and challenged by various factors like staff absenteeism and other limited resources. More than half of the workforce in Liberia has been out of work since the start of the Ebola outbreak. It is vital to continue essential services like maternal and child health care, emergency care and others while responding to emergencies like an Ebola outbreak other pandemic or disaster. Having a business continuity plan (BCP) and involving various sectors during planning and implementing the plan during a crisis will assist in providing essential services to the public. An established BCP will not only help the continuity of services, it also assists in maintaining achievements of sustainable development. This applies to all sectors other than health, for instance, energy sectors, communication, transportation, education, production and agriculture.
在紧急情况下，卫生系统将不堪重负，并受到诸如工作人员缺勤和其他资源有限等各种因素的挑战。自埃博拉疫情爆发以来，利比里亚一半以上的劳动力失业。在应对埃博拉疫情、其他大流行病或灾难等紧急情况的同时，继续提供孕产妇和儿童保健、急诊护理等基本服务至关重要。制定业务连续性计划（BCP）并在危机期间的规划和实施过程中让各个部门参与进来，将有助于向公众提供基本服务。既定的BCP不仅有助于服务的连续性，还有助于维持可持续发展的成果。这适用于卫生部门以外的所有部门，例如能源部门、通信、交通、教育、生产和农业。
