Do You Have a Disaster Recovery Plan?

A healthcare organization without a disaster recovery plan is playing Russian roulette with patient care and organizational survival. DR isn't optional—it's a compliance requirement and a business imperative.

Common DR mistakes:

• No Plan at All — Many organizations lack documented, tested procedures for major outages
• Untested Plans — Plans that look good on paper but fail in practice when actually needed
• Inconsistent Data Backups — Outdated or incomplete backups that can't restore full functionality
• Poor Recovery Time Objectives — DR plans that take too long to recover and miss critical business windows

Building an effective DR plan:

• Define RTO & RPO — Set target recovery times and acceptable data loss windows
• Identify Critical Systems — Prioritize which systems must recover first
• Test Regularly — Run quarterly DR drills to validate procedures and train staff
• Maintain Offsite Backups — Use geographic redundancy to survive data center failures
