This article reports findings of a qualitative study describing how the US Department of Veterans Affairs cared for vulnerable veterans after Hurricane Sandy while medical center was closed for an extended period. This experience highlights how vulnerable patients continued to need care. Hospital preparedness planning efforts focus primarily on sheltering in place and evacuation.
