Abstract
In Central African Republic (CAR), health systems have faced significant challenges during epidemic responses. Qualitative research involving interviews with healthcare workers, community members, and policymakers to assess system strengths and weaknesses. Healthcare facilities reported an average of 30% increase in patient load due to epidemic outbreaks, necessitating flexible resource allocation strategies. CAR's health systems exhibited resilience through innovative partnerships between local communities and international aid organizations. Enhanced community engagement and improved healthcare facility mobility are recommended for future epidemic response planning. Health system resilience, Central African Republic, Epidemic preparedness
