The aim of the national health preparedness plan is to provide a comprehensive overview of the health and care sector’s preparedness, including preparedness for various social services. 
Formålet med Nasjonal helseberedskapsplan er å gi en samlet oversikt over helse- og omsorgssektorens beredskap, inkludert beredskap for ulike sosiale tjenester.
The plan constitutes the basis for how the health sector handles all types of crises and disasters. 
Planen utgjør grunnlag for helsesektorens håndtering av alle typer kriser og katastrofer.
The national health preparedness plan is a national framework for the health sector’s preparedness. 
Nasjonal helseberedskapsplan er et nasjonalt rammeverk for helsesektorens beredskap.
The entities must regularly evaluate and update their preparedness plans. 
Aktørene skal jevnlig evaluere og oppdatere sine beredskapsplaner.
Lessons learned from drills and incidents should be incorporated in the plans through systematic improvement work. 
Læring fra øvelser og hendelser innarbeides i planene gjennom et systematisk forbedringsarbeid.
Clear notification and reporting routines and sound cooperation between the entities during crises are particularly important, and are therefore discussed at length in this plan. 
Tydelige varslings- og rapporteringsrutiner og god samhandling mellom aktørene ved kriser er særlig viktig og omtales derfor inngående i denne planen.
Experience shows that many crises and disasters are often international in scope. 
Erfaringen viser at flere kriser og katastrofer ofte er internasjonale.
Good crisis management thus requires sound preparedness cooperation with other countries and international organisations. 
God krisehåndtering krever derfor et godt beredskapssamarbeid med andre land og internasjonale organisasjoner.
The Norwegian health authorities’ cooperation with international entities is also discussed in the plan. 
Norske helsemyndigheters samhandling med internasjonale aktører er derfor også omtalt i planen.
