5-6 May, 16-17 May and 5-6 June | Sudurpashchim, Karnali and Lumbini provinces - The Health Emergency Operation Center (HEOC), Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP), organized two-day workshops in Sudurpashchim, Karnali and Lumbini provinces to develop the Hospital Disaster Preparedness and Response Plans (HDPRP). Following a brief on the HEOC framework, information flow and management protocols during emergencies, over 50 participants including healthcare workers and administrators from the satellite hospitals in each of the provinces developed individual HDPRPs via the HSI+ app, and tested developed plans via facilitated tabletop exercises. The plan, which strengthens the preparedness and response capacities of satellite hospitals in the provinces, will now be disseminated within each respective hospital to update their remaining staff and ensure effective implementation during health response to disasters or public health emergencies. These activities were conducted with the financial support from the European Commission.
