- Nursing Education
- Disaster Preparedness
- Resilience Training
Background:
- Increasing natural and human-caused disasters necessitate improved healthcare professional training.
- Nursing education requires enhanced disaster preparedness, particularly in fostering courage and strength.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and evaluate a disaster exercise aimed at strengthening disaster response skills.
- To cultivate resilience and courage in nursing students during disaster events.
Main Methods:
- A disaster exercise was designed using standardized patients and manikin simulators.
- The simulation created a realistic scenario to assess and improve disaster response capabilities.
Main Results:
- Key lessons included establishing common goals, acknowledging uncertainty, and the need for guidance.
- Participants learned to reframe burdensome and emotional reactions experienced during the exercise.
Conclusions:

Applications of GIS: Disaster Management and Emergency Response
27
Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is essential for risk identification, action prioritization, and resource optimization in critical situations like flooding and earthquakes. By integrating spatial and demographic data, GIS provides a comprehensive framework for emergency response.GIS integrates data layers, like rainfall intensity, topography, elevation profiles, and river levels, to model high-risk flood zones. These layers assess areas susceptible to flooding based on their...
