Abstract
Climate-sensitive extreme weather events are increasingly impacting frontline clinic operations. We conducted a national, cross-sectional survey of 284 self-identified administrators and other staff at frontline clinics determining their attitudes toward climate change and the impacts, resilience, and preparedness of clinics for extreme weather events. Most respondents (80.2%) reported that humans are causing climate change, and nearly half (45.9%) reported concerns about extreme weather impacting their job, with barriers to preparedness including financing and knowledge and resources. Over a third (41.8%) of respondents reported taking steps to protect their clinic infrastructure from extreme weather, including by addressing power and improving ventilation.
