Emergency Preparedness in Healthcare Conference
Canada’s leading event for healthcare emergency preparedness professionals
Toronto + Virtual
June 4-5, 2026
About The Conference
At its core, the Emergency Preparedness in Healthcare returns each year to the essentials of healthcare emergency management: preparing for mass casualty incidents (Code Orange), responding to violent situations or active shooters (Code Silver), strengthening hospital incident command systems, ensuring continuity during evacuations or IT failures, and planning for hazardous materials and CBRNE (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive) threats.
These enduring priorities are complemented by timely issues shaping today’s risk landscape. Recent programs have explored lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic, mass protests and convoy disruptions, high-profile cyberattacks, climate-driven disasters, and rural and Indigenous community evacuations, ensuring the event reflects both long-standing preparedness needs and the latest real-world challenges.
