Abstract
Background: The ever-increasing occurrences of natural and human-caused disasters require assistance from health care professionals, and a focus on improving disaster training in nursing education has become essential. However, there is a distinct lack of how to cultivate strength and courage regarding roles in a disaster event.
Method: A disaster exercise was created using standardized patients and manikin simulators to create a realistic scenario to strengthen essential disaster response skills and cultivate participant resiliency.
Results: Three lessons transpired in this order: common goals and partnerships, acknowledging uncertainty and a need for guidance, and an essential need to reframe and discuss burdensome and emotional reactions experienced.
Conclusion: A learning culture was observed during the prebriefing, disaster exercise, and debriefing, emphasizing readiness to care, promoting common goals and partnerships, and verbalization of reframing experiences as support strategies to cultivate resilience in nursing students.
