The fires that have devastated Southern California since Jan. 7 are also heavily impacting HASC’s hospital members. This page will house wildfire resources for our members, and will be updated as new information arises.
Member hospitals near fire areas remain on high alert and many facilities face other operational hurdles. Challenges include communications struggles, staffing shortages due to employee displacement, and capacity strains as they prepare for possible patient surges.
HASC is leading efforts to ensure public and emergency agencies hear and respond to our member hospitals’ needs. We stand ready to support you throughout this crisis and beyond. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can assist in any way.
