The CHA Hospital Preparedness Program has developed this
checklist for hospital CEOs. It can serve as a reference to
ensure appropriate planning is occurring within your
organization. The expanded checklist below is for hospital
planners.
This checklist is intended to be used as one of several tools to
assist in preparation for Seasonal Influenza and Pandemic.
The tool contains recommendations which are general in nature
with a purpose of prompting review and action. Public health is
the lead agency during these events, and every effort should be
made to remain up-to-date with rapidly changing local, state, and
federal guidance and regulations.
The CHA Hospital Preparedness Program develops tools and
resources for hospitals to assist with disaster
planning. These resources are periodically reviewed and
updated, if necessary.
As a precautionary measure following the 2017 and 2018 wildfires,
PG&E is expanding its Community Wildfire Safety Program to
further reduce wildfire risks and help keep customers and
communities safe. As part of this program, they are asking
customers to be prepared for power outages.
If extreme fire danger conditions threaten a portion of the
electric system, it may be necessary for PG&E to turn off
electricity in the interest of public safety. This is called a
Public Safety Power Shutoff.
PGE will be hosting a webinar on their wildfire safety
program for interested hospitals on June 7th from 9 am –
10 am
