Abstract

Abstract --The research concerning disaster mitigation and response involved many aspects. According to 懀he SOP of Disaster Medicine, 2003? it covers three categories, that is, disaster response system, communication/computer science and database set-up. Because of the essential roles of disaster planning, we have to avoid the 𢖯aper plan syndrome? It is thus important to make a complete cost-effectiveness evaluation for the overall disaster scientific technique researches. We therein evaluated the mode and the degree of putting research planning to real practice in central and local governments in Taiwan. We have been engaged in the related work in the past year and collected many invaluable information and data. We have studied accomplishments in SOP, impacts on related legal environments, effects on government ICS and hospital HEICS, and the distribution of resources. Our findings include that the overall disaster planning has gradually concentrated in the fewer research institutes in the past 5 years. The satisfactory ratio of the government in the results (and/or suggestions on SOP) disaster research is about 70-80%. The familiarity ratio of the government in the results (and/or suggestions on SOP) disaster research is about 70-75%. The ratio of the government enrolling the results (and/or suggestions on SOP) disaster research into the government SOP is about 25-30%. The ratio of the government developing SOP at the attitude of downward (that is, the government established SOP and ordered the related agencies to exert upon) is about 80%. Fifty percent of the results (and/or suggestions on SOP) disaster research that government SOP adapted is still at the stage of 𩹨ules on trial? Forty percent of the government command systems are comparable the ICS structure. Sixty percent of the emergency response hospitals command system are comparable the HEICS structure.
