Conventional Capacity – Spaces, staff and supplies are consistent with daily practices within the institution

Contingency Capacity – Spaces, staff and supplies used are not consistent with daily practices but maintain or have minimal impact on usual patient care practices.

Crisis Capacity – Adaptive spaces, staff, and supplies are not consistent with usual standards of care.

Space Usual patient care space or area are fully utilized

Patient care areas repurposed (ex. PACU or monitored units for ICU-level care)

Facility damaged/ unsafe or non-patient care areas (ex. classrooms, etc.) used for patient care

Staff Usual staff called in and utilizedStaff extension (ex. brief deferrals of non-emergent service, supervision of broader group of patients, change in responsibilities, documentation, etc.)

Trained staff unavailable or unable to adequately care for volume of patients even with extension techniques

Supplies Cached and usual supplies used Conservation, adaptation, and substitution of supplies with occasional reuse of select supplies

Critical supplies lacking. Possible reallocation of life-sustaining resources .

Standard of Care Usual Care Functionally equivalent care Crisis standards of care

Usual Operating Conditions Austere Operating Conditions

Capacity Continuum of Care
