I just learned that the CSA Z1600 emergency management and business continuity standard may play a part in the accreditation program for Canadian hospitals.

I used the NFPA 1600 standard quite effectively for upgrading a hospital emergency management program before CSA Z1600 was available, so I was quite excited to hear that CSA Z1600 may play a part in the hospital accreditation program.  I have requested an article for our PTSC-Online accreditation blog from those who are directly involved and I anxiously look forward to that article and learning the details.
