(Be) Ready
for any crisis
Emergency preparedness for hospitals and health systems.
We help healthcare organizations assess readiness, strengthen contingency plans, and test response capability for disasters, outbreaks, and mass casualty events.
COVID-19 exposed how quickly health systems can be overwhelmed. Future outbreaks are inevitable, making preparedness essential to protect lives and maintain hospital operations.
Armed conflicts and security threats are increasingly close to home. Hospitals must be ready to function during mass casualty events and prolonged disruptions.
Extreme weather, industrial accidents, and infrastructure failures are occurring more frequently. Health facilities must remain operational when systems are stressed.
National and international frameworks require hospitals to plan for emergencies. Beyond compliance, readiness directly improves patient safety and quality of care during crises.

Who we help
We work with organizations responsible for keeping hospitals operational during crises. That includes preparedness for disasters, outbreaks, conflict-related disruption, mass casualty events, and other emergencies that place pressure on health systems.
What we offer
Our services are designed to meet hospitals where they are, adapting to local realities, risk profiles, and resources to build practical and sustainable readiness.
Readiness Assessment
What it is
A structured, evidence-based assessment of a hospital’s ability to function during emergencies and disasters.
Scope
Review of infrastructure, engineering, and critical systems
Assessment of emergency, critical care, operative pathways, and surge capacity
Identification of priority risks and gaps using a standardized readiness checklist.
Contingency Planning & Strengthening
What it is
A deeper engagement focused on strengthening or developing hospital contingency plans aligned with identified risks.
Scope
Review and revision of existing contingency and emergency plans
Development or redesign of hazard-specific or all-hazards plans
Creation of SOPs, action cards, coordination and communication tools
Alignment with national and international preparedness frameworks
Preparedness Testing & Training
What it is
Validation of readiness through simulation exercises and targeted training for hospital teams.
Scope
Table-top or functional simulation exercises (including mass casualty scenarios)
Optional drills adapted to hospital capacity and risk profile
Managerial and clinical training for coordination, triage, and emergency care
Post-exercise analysis and refinement of plans
How we typically start
We often begin with a focused engagement designed to identify key risks, test assumptions, and define practical next steps. These entry points help hospitals and health-sector partners move quickly from interest to action.

Selected projects
Ukraine - Emergency Preparedness for Disasters and Mass Casualty Events
Year: 2020 – 2023
Partners: Ministry of Health
The project focused on evaluating hospital infrastructure and emergency response capabilities, strengthening preparedness systems, and supporting implementation through training and simulation exercises. Key activities included building the capacity of healthcare professionals, improving emergency response protocols, and using simulation-based exercises to test, validate, and refine response plans. By strengthening both pre-hospital and hospital preparedness, the project helped improve the resilience, coordination, and effectiveness of emergency medical response systems.
