Write a vulnerability assessment report for an urban medical clinic serving low-income clientele as if you were a consultant. The clinic is located in the hot, dry desert region of Southern California, in a high-traffic, high-crime area.

The ranking process is subjective, so there is no “right” or “wrong” answer.
2. Calculate the Vulnerability Level for each potential disaster by multiplying the Probability ranking by the Severity ranking. For example, in Florida the probability and severity of a hurricane are Very High, so the Vulnerability Level might be 20 or 25.
3. Categorize the vulnerabilities into three groups: High Priority, Medium Priority, and Low Priority.
