Topic Collection: Family Reunification and Support

Disasters and mass casualty incidents can strike at any time, separating families and friends from their loved ones or displacing them for long periods of time. Some patients will not survive, and family notification and support must be provided. Patient tracking and family reunification and support services are key aspects of disaster response and recovery, but also some of the most challenging. Hospital-based family support actions and centers must also integrate activities and referrals with community-based resources and Family Assistance Centers.

The documents, case studies, templates, and systems outlined in this Topic Collection will help stakeholders better understand and fulfill their roles. Healthcare preparedness planners can utilize existing systems and concepts traditionally used by other response agencies and reunification agencies. This Topic Collection was refreshed in November 2022.

Please note: Pediatric and family resources are considered integrated, therefore, there is no separate sub-category in this Topic Collection specific to pediatrics.

Each resource in this Topic Collection is placed into one or more of the following categories (click on the category name to be taken directly to that set of resources). Resources marked with an asterisk (*) appear in more than one category.

American Academy of Pediatrics, in collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital, Center for Disaster Medicine. (2018). Family Reunification Following Disasters: A Planning Tool for Health Care Facilities.
This planning tool was created to assist hospitals with their plans to provide information, support services, and safe reunification assistance to family members of patients who have experienced disasters. It provides potential solutions to reunification-related challenges, including: planning for the secure reception, tracking, and care of large numbers of children who may present to a hospital following a mass-casualty event; identifying injured and unaccompanied children in a disaster; tracking unaccompanied children during their hospital stay; and what legal authority a hospital has to administer care to minors when the parent/guardian is unavailable to participate in the informed consent process.

The authors surveyed Association of Healthcare Emergency Preparedness Professionals to better understand hospital preparedness for reuniting unaccompanied minors with family members after a disaster. Respondents agreed preparedness for family reunification was important, but the survey suggested that just 65.9% of hospitals are prepared to reunite minors with family, while 63.6% had some form of reunification plan. The authors suggest hospitals prioritize development of plans for a scenario where reunification is required.

The authors used a mathematical simulation to examine how a delay in admitting and discharging pediatric cohort affects mortality and the cost of inpatient care. The authors note that children are often transported to specialty centers after disasters which leads to separation from the families. The results of the simulation argue for improvement in identification technology and logistics for rapid reunification of pediatric survivors with their families.

The authors of this article surveyed households in Haiti after Hurricane Matthew in 2016, with the primary outcome being the prevalence of unaccompanied and separated children in the aftermath. The survey found that 3.03% of the 2,046 children living in the surveyed households were separated from their caregivers, and that the prevalence was similar in respondents' neighbors’ households compared with respondents’ households. Despite child separation being relatively low, the authors emphasize the utility of this survey method during future disasters.

This article evaluated which physical characteristics were most useful in reuniting parents and children after a disaster. The authors found that gender, eye color, and race were the most useful in identification, while descriptions of hair and skin color were less useful for reunification. Other personal information, such as whether the family had a pet, facilitated rapid reunification. The authors conclude some types of information are more useful than others when reunifying families after a disaster.
