Climate change poses significant threats to healthcare infrastructure, particularly in flood-prone regions. This paper examines the multifaceted impacts of climate change on hospitals located in flood-prone areas, highlighting vulnerabilities, economic costs, and potential mitigation strategies. By analysing case studies and integrating data from recent literature, the study underscores the urgent need for climate-resilient healthcare infrastructure.
