TextLanguage: ENG Publication details: 09 NOV 1990Description: 3pSubject: The ACT Counter Disaster plan is basically a city plan which is simply extended to the mostly nearby border with NSW. The city-based services respond to any disaster within the ACT, the exception being and airport disaster when assistance also comes from RAAF ambulance and medical, and Queanbeyan (NSW) ambulance and fire services. Although this paper by necessity describes the current ACT plans and responses there will be an across the board review of all plans within 12 months. The public hospitals in the ACT will become 2 during 1991 with the amalgamation of Royal Canberra and Woden Valley Hospitals, including transfer of the trauma service to the combined hospital site. The ACT Medical/health sub-plan is also due for revision this financial year, allowing a full review of plans from Territory to hospital level.
