The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, along with natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, have led to decades of disaster preparedness planning. Despite the attention and focus on planning, many studies have found that hospitals are ill prepared to appropriately manage extended disasters. The author completed her doctoral program capstone project on neonatal intensive care unit disaster preparedness. This article discusses lessons learned during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and what future disaster preparedness plans must consider.
2001年9月11日的恐怖袭击,以及卡特里娜飓风等自然灾害,引发了长达数十年的灾难应急准备规划。尽管人们对规划给予了关注并投入了精力,但许多研究发现,医院在妥善应对长期灾难方面准备不足。作者完成了她关于新生儿重症监护病房灾难应急准备的博士项目顶点项目。本文讨论了在2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行期间吸取的教训,以及未来灾难应急准备计划必须考虑的因素。
