Abstract

Abstract: Mobile field hospitals are set up urgently to respond to all types of emergencies and to meet the health needs of people. In this case, field hospital must be efficient and respond accurately to the emergency for which it is deployed. However, this efficiency can be observed only when the field hospital is deployed during the emergency. Therefore, any deficiencies can not be corrected "on the fly" to fully respond to the emergency. As a consequence, it is interesting to assess the field hospitals before their deployment to ensure it is able to respond efficiently to the emergency. This paper focuses and illustrates the first development to assess a field hospital and based on maturity model. This work takes place within the collaborative research project "HOPICAMP", funded by the French Unique Interministerial Fund for a new generation of field hospitals.
