Abstract

Rapid health assessments (RHAs) are used during an emergency response to gather information about the health status and needs of an affected population. They are a systematic way of collecting information in a complex emergency situation, with the information gathered assisting in planning, directing and implementing an appropriate response. RHAs provide decision makers and partner agencies with a rapid insight into the health needs of an affected population.
