Checklists to Assess Vulnerabilities in Health Care Facilities in the Context of Climate Change
Publisher: World Health Organization
This tool complements the WHO Guidance for Climate-Resilient and Environmentally Sustainable Health Care Facilities with seven checklists to identify and address climate-related vulnerabilities and impacts in healthcare facilities. It outlines three key steps to establish a baseline for climate change resilience within health care facilities:
- identifying the main climate hazards that health care facilities face;
- assessing current vulnerability in health care facilities; and
- understanding potential climate change impacts in health care facilities.
Intended users
Health care facility managers and other health workers working on climate change vulnerability and adaptation.
