Abstract

Man-made or natural disasters are occurring more frequently in the United States and around the world. It is important that all nurses in all specialties be prepared to care for people affected by disasters. This article reports a descriptive study that sought to explore nursing students' perceptions about disaster nursing and to use the findings to suggest recommendations for building the discipline of disaster nursing. Results of this study indicate that nursing students had the following gaps of knowledge regarding disaster nursing: (1) an incomplete definition of disaster nursing; (2) lack of recognition about the importance of knowing community resources, having mock disaster drills, and utilizing disaster planning models; and (3) lack of perception that all nurses could play a significant role in disaster situations. The authors recommend that disaster nursing be taught by nursing faculty as a specialty in nursing programs.

护生对灾害护理的认知

人为或自然灾害在美国和世界各地越来越频繁地发生。重要的是，所有专业的所有护士都准备好照顾受灾害影响的人。本文报告了一项描述性研究，旨在探讨护理学生对灾难护理的看法，并利用研究结果提出建立灾难护理学科的建议。本研究结果显示护生对灾害护理的认知存在以下差距:(1)对灾害护理的定义不完整;(2)对了解社区资源、模拟灾害演习和利用灾害规划模型的重要性认识不足;(3)缺乏对所有护士在灾难中都能发挥重要作用的认识。作者建议，灾难护理应由护理学院作为护理课程的专业来教授。
