My thesis is about Early Warning System application on hospital preparedness in disaster

Hi Vahid, there are quite a few articles and sites relevant to this topic, interestingly even a specific conference: http://medicalworldamericas.com/hospital-disaster-preparedness/

The CDC website: http://emergency.cdc.gov/planning/ has a good section on preparedness for health care facilities

Also info on the World Health Organisation site: http://www.euro.who.int/en/health-topics/emergencies/disaster-preparedness-and-response/publications/2011/hospital-emergency-response-checklist

Some useful articles include:

M Krajewski, M Sztajnkrycer, A Báez. Hospital Disaster Preparedness in the United States: New issues, New Challenges. The Internet Journal of Rescue and Disaster Medicine. 2004 Volume 4 Number 2.

Mehmet Top, Ömer Gider, and Yunus Tas. "An Investigation of Hospital Disaster Preparedness in Turkey" Journal of Homeland Security and Emergency Management 7.1 (2010).
