Afet Yönetiminde Halk Sağlığı Hemşiresinin Rol ve Sorumlulukları

Year 2013, Volume: 21 Issue: 2, 122 - 128, 18.09.2014

Abstract

Afet yönetimi Toplum Sağlığı Merkezleri’nin görevleri arasında yer almakla birlikte hemşirelerin afet yönetimindeki gö-
rev ve sorumlulukları kapsamında yeterli bilgi bulunmamaktadır. Toplumun genel yapısı ve sağlık durumu hakkında kapsamlı
bilgiye sahip olmaları, program planlama, toplumu değerlendirme ve grup dinamiklerinde uzman olmaları nedeniyle
halk sağlığı hemşireleri afet yönetiminde anahtar role sahiptir. Bu makalede halk sağlığı hemşireliği kavramı toplum
temelli alanlarda çalışan hemşireler için kullanılmıştır. Halk sağlığı hemşirelerinin afet yönetimine aktif katılabilmesi
için üzerine düşen sorumlulukları bilmesi önemlidir. Bu makalede ülkemizde afete hazırlık konusundaki araştırmalar
ile mevcut durum incelenmiş, halk sağlığı hemşirelerinin afet yönetimindeki rol ve sorumlulukları hazırlık, yanıt ve
iyileşme aşamalarında açıklanmıştır.
