Disaster health: what emergency nursing students need to know

I was invited by the Canberra Emergency Nursing Student Society to discuss aspects of disaster health, particularly as it relates the the realities of nursing in a disaster and the role of student nurses.

This presentation discussed research related to:

• Willingness,
• Education,
• Nursing roles,
• Leadership and teamwork,
• Hospital surge capacity,
• Triage,
• Disaster tourism, and
• Future research priorities.
