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.Medicinebicsscdisastershealthcare workershospital preparednesshospitalscoronavirus (COVID-19)public-private partnerships (PPPs) triagecrisis managementresilienceexerciseslearninginter-organisationaloff-shoreon-shoreemergenciescollaborationcycle of expansive learningfull-scale exercisesmajor incidentorganizational learningpreparednessunderground minecapacitycommunitycrisisdisasterflexiblesurgemanagementflexible surge capacityleadershipThailand3LCutilityecoterrorismenvironmental extremismanimal-rights extremismdeep ecologyecologically motivated violencecritical infrastructuredrinking waterrisk managementrisk reductioninteractionconcurrent learningexerciseunforeseenCOVID-19nursejob engagementsocial supportemergencyhealthcarereadinesspublic healthurgent care centreemergency departmentlength of staysurge capacitySwedenMedicineKhorram-Manesh Amiredt1278957Burkle Frederick MedtKhorram-Manesh AmirothBurkle Frederick MothBOOK9910557584403321Emergencies and Public Health Crisis Management- Current Perspectives on Risks and Multiagency Collaboration3014288UNINA
