PASCO COUNTY HEALTH CARE COALITION

Building a Stronger Preparedness Network

The Pasco Health and Medical Preparedness Coalition is an association of organizations, government agencies, faith based organizations, individuals, and businesses with disaster planning and operational responsibilities or capabilities.

The coalition is dedicated to promoting a state of readiness and supporting response efforts to protect the health of Pasco County residents during catastrophic events, large scale disasters, and emergencies. Each member organization maintains its own identity and independence while closely collaborating with other member organizations to strengthen local preparedness and response.

Our Mission

Preparing Pasco County to Respond

The mission of the Pasco Health and Medical Preparedness Coalition is to enhance collaborative response efforts to disasters and emergencies by mobilizing local assets to meet community, county, and regional needs.

The coalition accomplishes this mission by coordinating education, assessment, and support services involving public health providers, private medical providers, public safety agencies, government officials, and other community partners.
