An institution, the work of which is crucial to the safety and well-being of the residents of the state, healthcare facility also plays a huge role in providing the citizens with a relatively safe environment and the means to survive the attacks. According to what Noji says, it is crucial that the local healthcare facilities should have a well-developed information management system so that they could cooperate efficiently in case of an emergency. More to the point, it is crucial that healthcare facilities should cooperate with other elements of the state security system, thus, providing perfect information management process and cooperation between the departments: “The healthcare industry and traditional healthcare organizations must join with public health departments, law enforcement, and intelligence.”
In addition, once healthcare facilities join their efforts, it will be possible to carry out a range of strategic steps, such as the preparation for unique attacks, carrying out the activities that will help detect the threat of contamination on its earliest stages and, therefore, reduce the rates of complications among the patients, carry out surveillance-related procedures, therefore, preventing the further instances of attacks, etc. As one can see easily, some of the problems mentioned above require the services of such departments as the state intelligence and other organizations. Thus, providing cooperation between different departments, “improving communications between local, state, and federal public health agencies (including CDC) and the national security community” and, thus, facilitating complete clarity and coordination of actions between several state organizations related to emergency cases is a necessary step towards providing citizens with security.
