Objective:
This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate a training program on nursing students' disaster response self-efficacy.
Methods:
This study was conducted using a pre-test, post-test, and follow up design. A total of 92 nursing students participated in the study. The developed program was implemented both theoretically (online) and practically (in person). Nursing students' disaster response self-efficacy was measured using the Disaster Response Self-Efficacy Scale that was filled out 1 week before the intervention, and 2 months after the intervention by the students. The students' satisfaction with the program and their views on the program were also surveyed.
Results:
Overall score and all items score had significant improvement in short-, and long-term except in 1 item (item 22). The highest increase in score was related to practical items and referral for psychiatric treatment (items 7, 8, 10, and 18) and the lowest increase was related to communication and ethical skill items (items 20, 21, and 22). It is possible that the students had a higher perception of communication and ethical skills even before the training. Most of the students were satisfied with the program.
Conclusions:
A training intervention that can provide theoretical materials online, as well as face-to-face practical programs, can increase nursing students' disaster response self-efficacy.
