Abstract

Hospitals are important bases in an earthquake. Since hospitals are also affected by the earthquake, it is necessary to grasp the situation of damage to hospitals just after the earthquake in order to maintain the medical function after the earthquake. For this reason, disaster medical plans are in progress to cope with recent large-scale disasters. Therefore, we conducted a questionnaire survey on damage to hospitals by the 2018 Hokkaido Iburi-tobu Earthquake in order to clarify an important damage considered in the future disaster medical care plan. Impact of damage to lifeline on medical functions is significant and it is important to secure the capacity of alternative devices of the lifeline.
