  • Title: Dealing with disasters: how hospitals responded to sulfuric acid leak, tornado, floods.
    Journal: Hosp Secur Saf Manage; 1994 Jan; 14(9):5-10. PubMed ID: 10131688.
    Abstract:
    Disasters can strike at any time, with or without warning. While all hospitals have emergency preparedness plans, anticipating every effect of a crisis on the hospital, staff, and surrounding community can be difficult. This special report will examine the response of hospitals to three disasters--an acid leak in California, a tornado in Virginia, and the summer flooding in the Midwest--and the lessons learned from those crises.
