N2  - True disaster readiness and preparedness are not    really measured until put to the test of a real disaster. The attacks of Sept    11, 2001, put 1 community hospital and its disaster plan to the ultimate test.    The process the hospital used to review, evaluate, and change its former    disaster plan and then implement a new plan on the basis of the response to Sept    11 terrorists attacks is described. Specific challenges faced by this community    hospital, the importance of participation in a regional response effort, and how    the hospital has readied itself in a new threat environment are addressed.    Disasters affect hospitals of all sizes and geographic locations. Health care    facilities need a strong framework with which to function independently, if only    for a short time, until additional resources can be implemented.
