Nepal’s emergency preparedness plan worked well – WHO
Retrofitting is a process which involves everything from repairing cracks in walls to installing seismic belts and roof bracing.
The first earthquake of magnitude 7.9 on 25 April and the second on 12 May measuring 6.8 couldn’t disrupt services at Kathmandu’s largest public hospitals, including Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH), Patan Hospital, Civil Service Hospital, Birendra Army Hospital and the trauma centre at Bir Hospital.
However, retrofitting alone is not sufficient for an adequate healthcare response in times of disaster, the WHO has warned. Capacity building and staff training is equally important.
