Primary Care Providers
The Hawke's Bay District Health Board has developed a comprehensive template to help those Primary Care Providers develop their Emergency and Business Continuity Plans.
Developing your emergency and business continuity plans based on the document below will help you meet the typical requirements of funding and auditing agencies. You will, of course, need to check whether additional requirements apply in your case.
Legal requirements
In addition to the statutory responsibilities, which are included in this document, contractual obligations will dictate the level of emergency planning you must undertake.
Included in this document
Emergency Plan

Business Continuity Plan
This plan is a guide to the systems and processes that your organisation will use to prepare and respond to a situation where there is risk to business continuity. This plan is flexible in order to cater for a variety of situations and is based on know hazards and risk and available resources.
The plan contains clear guidance and useful templates which can easily be adapted for your organisation.
