We successfully managed the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011, through the rapid organization of an emergency operation headquarters and implementation of emergency plans. The incident thus allowed us to review and address prospective problems in our medical institute's emergency and disaster response. Notably, the aged and vulnerable infrastructure of our facilities impelled us to rebuild the grand design and upgrade its seismic shock resistance. We also devised a medical care plan based on disaster prevention and business continuity plan (BCP) plans at each facility. Furthermore, strategic communication and information-sharing within our institution was another issue addressed during our disaster-response training in FY2021.
Taking these observations into consideration, we aim to continuously monitor and adjust our disaster-response plan according to rapidly changing socio-environmental conditions. As disaster resilience must be built within the institution as a whole, we will continue our efforts to improve our disaster-response plans and information distribution within our community.
