Goiania, Matsumoto and Tokyo incidents, as well as the anthrax crisis show that the hospitals are directly involved in the response to NBC incidents, which is why they must be integrated into the system of response to disasters together with pre-hospital care services in order to provide an effective response to such accidents. Organizational and management challenges that hospital faces in an incident do not only affect emergency services, they go beyond, so they must be considered in the Hospital's Emergency Plan. The answer is the establishment of a plan for continuous improvement in the installation through the assessment of its safety index and through the preparation, individual and collective, of the health center in order to activate the emergency plan immediately once set the alarm, avoiding that way the transfer of contamination to facilities and staff and minimizing the consequences of a NBC incident.
