Disasters or crises impact humans, pets, and service animals alike. Current preparation at the federal, state, and local level focuses on preserving human life. Hospitals, shelters, and other human care facilities generally make few to no provisions for companion care nor service animal care as part of their disaster management plan. Aban-doned animals have infectious disease, safety and psychologic impact on owners, rescue workers, and those involved in reclamation efforts. Animals working as first responder partners may be injured or exposed to biohazards and require care.
English language literature available via PubMed as well as lay press publications on emergency care, veterinary care, disaster management, disasters, biohazards, infection, zoonosis, bond-centered care, prepared-ness, bioethics, and public health. No year restrictions were set.
Human clinician skills share important overlaps with veterinary clinician skills; similar overlaps occur in medical and surgical emergency care. These commonalities offer the potential to craft-specific and disaster or crisis-deployable skills to care for humans, pets (dogs and cats), service animals (dogs and miniature horses) and first-responder partners (dogs) as part of national disaster healthcare preparedness. Such a platform could leverage the skills and resources of the existing US trauma system to underpin such a program.
灾难或危机对人类、宠物和服务动物都会产生影响。目前联邦、州和地方层面的应急准备工作主要侧重于保护人类生命。医院、避难所及其他人类护理机构在其灾难管理计划中，通常很少或根本没有为伴侣动物护理和服务动物护理做出安排。被遗弃的动物会带来传染病问题，对动物主人、救援人员以及参与救援工作的人员造成安全和心理影响。作为第一响应者伙伴的动物可能会受伤或接触到生物危害，需要进行护理。
通过PubMed获取的英文文献，以及关于急救护理、兽医护理、灾难管理、灾害、生物危害、感染、人畜共患病、以情感纽带为中心的护理、应急准备、生物伦理学和公共卫生的大众媒体出版物。未设置年份限制。
人类临床医生的技能与兽医临床医生的技能有重要的重叠之处；在医疗和外科急救护理方面也存在类似的重叠。这些共性为打造特定的、可在灾难或危机中部署的技能提供了潜力，以便在国家灾难医疗准备工作中照顾人类、宠物（狗和猫）、服务动物（狗和小型马）以及第一响应者伙伴（狗）。这样一个平台可以利用美国现有创伤系统的技能和资源来支持这样一个项目。
