This tool identifies the health facilities serving the most vulnerable populations in terms of service availability, meaning existing feasible redundancies in the health facility network in any region, socio-economic vulnerability and exposure to various hazards. It also takes into account the vulnerability of facilities themselves. The results can identify the health facilities most in need of detailed assessments and upgrading based on their building state, the population they serve and the hazard exposure. Depending on data availability, the analysis can also incorporate information on the availability of services from a supply side e.g. access of healthcare personnel.
