A Hazard Vulnerability Analysis (HVA) and subsequent Gaps Assessment is a systematic approach to identifying hazards or risks that are most likely to have an impact on the demand for health care services or the health care delivery system’s ability to provide these services. This assessment may also include estimates of potential injured or ill survivors, fatalities, and post-emergency community needs based on the identified risks. The HVA process should be coordinated with state and local emergency management organization assessments (e.g., Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment [THIRA]) and any public health hazard assessments (e.g., jurisdictional risk assessment).

Juvare is utilized by the New Jersey Healthcare Coalitions for organizational and situational awareness, communication, and regional response coordination. One of the many Juvare applications, EMResource, supports exercise and live event management by allowing users to create events, notify involved individuals and collect critical information necessary to effectively respond to medical emergency situations. Another application, eICS, supports response efforts by automating common workflows, such as form and report generation, including fully HSEEP-compliant After-Action-Reporting. Please visit our Juvare page for additional information.
