    Abstract:

    For the first time, protecting people’s health is at the front and centre of a global framework. The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SF DRR) 2015-2030 highlights the centrality of human health to the collective goals in disaster risk reduction by all sectors. In response to that, WHO has released a new Comprehensive Safe Hospital Framework and Hospital Safety Index to make hospitals safe and operational in disaster. In Indonesia, Hospital Preparedness and Community Readiness for Emergency and Disaster (HPCRED) has been initiated since 2008 and has been developed into a new, extended and comprehensive safe hospital programme. HPCRED is a programme and model that are developed by Muhammadiyah, a FBO/CSO that has 103 hospitals and more than 300 other primary health facilities, to prepare hospitals and communities around hospitals to be ready in the case of emergency and disaster. The model requires strengthening hospitals not only with structural mitigation but also strengthening non-structural and functional mitigation including hospital disaster plans, SOPs and guidelines for emergency situations, training management and staff in disaster management, improving skills for emergency, relief and response, and also having Table Top Exercises [TTX], drills and simulations or full scale exercises. In addition, the model involves communities around hospitals to be part of the hospital preparedness plan and includes a community contingency plan.  HPCRED also ensures that the health system for emergency situations is integrated into the broader health system in Indonesia. This seminar will map out the HPCRED approach and offer insight into its development and assess its application in the field.
