of essential healthcare services at all times, as well as full compliance with regulatory and
legislative requirements.
The standard is tailored to ensure the continuity of healthcare and emergency medical service

system. It primarily focuses on driving timely and uninterrupted response to critical
emergencies through the seamless coordination of resources and expertise. In addition, it aims
