The World Health Organization (WHO) oversees the health cluster, giving it responsibility for global, national, and local medical responses to natural disasters. However, this centralized structure insufficiently engages local players, impeding robust local implementation. The Gorkha earthquake struck Nepal on April 25, 2015, becoming Nepal\u2019s most severe natural disaster since the 1934 Nepal-Bihar earthquake. In coordinated response, 2 organizations, Empower Nepali Girls and International Neurosurgical Children\u2019s Association, used a hybrid approach integrating continuous communication with local recipients. Each organization mobilized its principal resource strengths\u2014material medical supplies or human capital\u2014thereby efficiently deploying resources to maximize the impact of the medical response. In addition to efficient resource use, this approach facilitates dynamic medical responses from highly mobile organizations. Importantly, in addition to future earthquakes in Nepal, this medical response strategy is easily scalable to other natural disaster contexts and other medical relief organizations. Preemptively identifying partner organizations with complementary strengths, continuous engagement with recipient populations, and creating disaster- and region-specific response teams may represent viable variations of the WHO cluster model with greater efficacy in local implementation of treatment in acute disaster scenarios.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/dmp.2022.263","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,14]],"date-time":"2023-02-14T06:43:25Z","timestamp":1676357005000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Using a Hybrid Approach to Increase the Impact of Medical Response to Natural Disasters"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Danielle M.","family":"Levy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeffrey A.","family":"Kottler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3068-2930","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jason W.","family":"Adams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John R.","family":"Crawford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael L.","family":"Levy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref29","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ngeo1669"},{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(11)60887-8"},{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467-018-07874-8"},{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.puhe.2016.12.031"},{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-12-812808-4.00007-9"},{"key":"S1935789322002634_ref4","unstructured":"4.
