title: Is healthcare security prepared for terrorism?
abstract: Programs for dealing with terrorism prior to the events of September 11, 2001 are inadequate for the new terrorist threat that may severely hamper a hospital's ability to render services. The article outlines areas of concern that must be addressed if hospitals are to fulfill their roles as major community resources in case of a terrorist event.
