To commemorate World Health Day this year 2009, WHO is advocating a series of best practices that can be implemented, in any resource setting, to make hospitals safe during emergencies. Wars, cyclones, earthquakes, tsunamis, disease outbreaks, famine, radiological incidents and chemical spills – all are emergencies that, invariably, impact heavily on public health. This brochure addresses the proposed topic in this commemorative day.
