It starts with appropriate risk assessment, prevention, and mitigation and continues to prehospital and hospital care, recovery, and evaluation. All levels of action require well-thought out emergency management plans and routines based on established command and control, identified safety issues, functional communication, well-documented triage and treatment policies, and available logistics. All these characteristics are capabilities that should be developed and trained, particularly when diverse agencies are involved. In addition to institutional responses, a robust, community-based disaster response system can effectively mitigate and respond to all emergencies. A well-balanced response is largely dependent on local resources and regional responding agencies that all too often train and operate within "silos", with an absence of interagency cooperation. The importance of this book issue is its commitment to all parts of emergency and public health crisis management from a multiagency perspective. It aims to discuss lessons learned and emerging risks, introduce new ideas about flexible surge capacity, and show the way it can practice multiagency collaboration.Medicinebicssc3LCanimal-rights extremismcapacitycollaborationcommunityconcurrent learningcoronavirus (COVID-19)COVID-19crisiscrisis managementcritical infrastructurecycle of expansive learningdeep ecologydisasterdisastersdrinking waterecologically motivated violenceecoterrorismemergenciesemergencyemergency departmentenvironmental extremismexerciseexercisesflexibleflexible surge capacityfull-scale exerciseshealthcarehealthcare workershospital preparednesshospitalsinter-organisationalinteractionjob engagementleadershiplearninglength of staymajor incidentmanagementn/anurseoff-shoreon-shoreorganizational learningpreparednesspublic healthpublic-private partnerships (PPPs) triagereadinessresiliencerisk managementrisk reductionsocial supportsurgesurge capacitySwedenThailandunderground mineunforeseenurgent care centreutilityMedicineKhorram-Manesh Amiredt1278957Burkle Frederick MedtKhorram-Manesh AmirothBurkle Frederick MothBOOK9910557584403321Emergencies and Public Health Crisis Management- Current Perspectives on Risks and Multiagency Collaboration3014288UNINA
