Disaster Nursing Disaster nursing plays a pivotal role in healthcare, ensuring timely and effective medical response during natural or man-made calamities. These specialized nurses are trained to provide care in chaotic environments, addressing both physical and psychological needs of victims. Key skills in disaster nursing include rapid assessment, triage, emergency care, and crisis communication. Their adaptability and resilience are vital in saving lives, mitigating trauma, and restoring public health systems. As disasters become more frequent, the demand for skilled disaster nurses continues to rise. Investing in disaster preparedness and specialized training is essential for a resilient healthcare system. #DisasterNursing #CrisisManagement #EmergencyCare #Healthcare #NursingProfession #PublicHealth #NurseLeadership #DisasterPreparedness #NursingSkills #HealthcareHeroes NNL ONE (Nursing Next Live Redefined) Society of Cardiac Nurses

Dear Registered Nurse or Nursing Student, Nurses are essential to disaster response and recovery. As essential workers, nurses and future nurses are called upon to respond to disasters in their communities. Despite the clear need for nurse preparedness, nurses and future nurses may be under-prepared for disaster related events. The purpose of this study is to evaluate nurse and nursing student disaster preparedness.  If you are English speaking, 18 years or older and a Registered Nurse or Nursing Student, we are asking you to participate in this study by completing a brief survey.  Institutional Review Board approval has been obtained.  Your input may contribute to a better understanding of disaster preparedness among nurses. The survey can be completed in 10-15 minutes or less.    You may access the anonymous survey at the following link (cut and paste if needed: https://lnkd.in/eNJKjkiw Janice Hawkins, PhD, RN (Principal Investigator)  Old Dominion University School of Nursing  Email:  [email protected]  Phone: 757-683-4376

🌪️ When Natural #Disasters Strike, Crisis Nurses Step In 🌪️ As #Hurricane Milton approaches, the impact on #LTC (Long-Term Care), #Rehab centers, and #hospitals in evacuation zones is immense. Facilities face the critical task of safely #relocating vulnerable patients, ensuring their well-being, and maintaining operational continuity. This is where crisis nurses play a vital role. They courageously step in to ensure patient care is never compromised, even in the face of dangerous weather conditions. These incredible #nurses work tirelessly to protect patients, offering true dedication and compassion. 💙 Wise Medical Staffing is proud to support both the facilities in the storm's path and the brave nurses who risk their lives to care for others during these challenging times. We want to extend a heartfelt #thank you to all the nurses and healthcare professionals working through such crises. Your commitment to patient safety and care is nothing short of heroic. 🙏 If your facility needs staffing support during the storm, Wise Medical is just a phone call away, 24/7.

Collaboration and teamwork are two of the best tools we can use to keep each other safe. When Emergency Services Coordinator, Devin Jackson and Health Centre Supervisor Erin DeVries got together to create a bigger medical responder umbrella, covering as much of our site as possible, we decided to ask them to share more about their vision. • Tell us about this medical responder umbrella – who is part of it and what’s the purpose? DEVIN: We’ve certified some of our active Mine Rescue volunteers up to the Emergency First Responder (EFR) or Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) levels. The goal is to spread out certified staff like a blanket across the operation to better respond to emergencies. • Erin, from the Health Centre’s perspective, why is it helpful to have extra staff trained up like this? ERIN: In the event of a medical emergency at the mine site, medical trained responders can provide immediate assistance to stabilize patients and initiate necessary interventions. It is helpful to the nurse, who is the sole medical professional on site and resources can be stretched thin. • Devin, as a Mine Rescue volunteer, you are always refreshing your emergency responder skill set. Our Mine Rescue team is a no-brainer as extra responders on site, but who else could be helpful? DEVIN: Having some representation from all departments on site is the end goal here. Someone doesn’t have to be a Mine Rescue volunteer to become a medical responder. We’re always looking to take on more help from anyone who has their Emergency First Responder (EFR) or Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) training, or is wanting to expand their medical responder training to that level. • At site, we have 17 active Emergency First Responders or Emergency Medical Responders on the roster, and you are aiming to have more than 20. How will you do it? DEVIN: Scheduling tends to be the largest logistical hurdle here as we work with five different rotations on site. Getting to this level of trained medical responders on site has taken nearly a year to date, but we’re still adding more responders as we can. We plan to continue the emergency responder training and anyone who wants to assist or wants to expand their training in the medical responder field is encouraged to talk to myself or Erin to get involved. • Erin and Devin, this is a huge undertaking and also an impactful one, as we add more trained responders across site to help in emergencies. ERIN: Having extra trained responders at Impala Canada enhances all of our safety and improves our emergency response capabilities. This is a great collaboration that will support the well-being of workers at site and across the operation. Thank you both for taking the time to share more details about this important safety collaboration, which will see more employees learning emergency responder skills and help everyone feel safe at site.
