PHSA has developed a comprehensive emergency management plan which prepares all of our agencies to respond in the case of a natural disaster, or other emergency in British Columbia.
The Provincial Health Services Authority's Emergency Response System will be activated when an imminent or actual emergency or disaster potentially affects the ability of the PHSA to save lives, reduce suffering, protect public health, protect PHSA's infrastructure or protect the environment.
This plan is intended to serve as an umbrella document; it links with provincial authorities and ministries, various programs and agencies and sites within the PHSA structure.
