Abstract

This article explores the experience of humanitarian disaster and emergency nursing, asking the question, "How is difference (and sameness) in being a nurse revealed when working in a disaster/relief context?" The articles discusses interviews with seven nurses, plus the primary researcher, who tell their stories of humanitarian nursing. Stark differences are revealed: extent of injuries, limits of treatment, and overwhelmingness of need. Alongside this is the huge difference of personal danger. Sameness shows itself in the human-to-human call and response to need that holds nurses in such work. Difference and sameness are not fixed; one readily becomes the other.

国际人道主义护理工作:面对差异,拥抱相同。
本文探讨了人道主义灾难和紧急护理的经验,并提出了这样一个问题:“在灾难/救援环境中工作时,作为一名护士的差异(和相同)是如何揭示的?”文章讨论了对七名护士和主要研究者的采访,他们讲述了他们的人道主义护理故事。明显的差异显露出来:受伤的程度,治疗的限制,以及压倒性的需求。除此之外,还有个人危险的巨大差异。在护士从事这类工作时,人与人之间的呼唤和对需求的反应显示出了同一性。差异和相同不是固定不变的;一个很容易变成另一个。
