Hospital evacuation: ensuring safe transfers and reassuring families
Evacuating a hospital is a complex operation in which patient safety is the top priority. CrisisRadar helps hospitals, GGD and healthcare institutions to coordinate the transfer and ensure that all those involved receive the correct information.
Wat er gebeurt
A gas leak forces a large hospital to carry out a full evacuation within a matter of hours. Hundreds of patients need to be transferred, including vulnerable ICU patients who cannot simply be moved. Medical care must not be interrupted for a single moment. At the same time, families, other hospitals, ambulance services and the Dutch Health and Safety Authority (GGD) must be informed of where patients are being taken. Families quickly become worried, whilst medical data must remain confidential. Everything must be done carefully and under considerable time pressure.
