It aims to inspire and equip nurses and other health professionals to help people in disaster-affected areas and contribute to community resilience. The last decade (2005-2015) has been characterized by a number of overwhelming natural disasters - tropical storms, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis; and threats of emerging infectious diseases - SARS, MERSCoV and Ebola around the world. Countries from the Asia Pacific region, such as Australia, Cambodia, China, Indonesia, India, Japan, Nepal, Philippines, Solomon Islands, South Korea, Thailand and Vanuatu, have borne the brunt of the devastation caused by these catastrophic events. Nurses from these countries have stepped in providing emergency care in hospitals and in the field, addressing public health needs in evacuation centers, supporting epidemiologic su rveillance and conducting health education, training and research, to help save lives and support communities build back better. 606 $aNursing administration 606 $aEmergency medicine 606 $aCritical care medicine 606 $aPractice of medicine 606 $aPrimary care (Medicine) 606 $aPublic health 606 $aNursing Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H41013 606 $aEmergency Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H22000 606 $aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3100X 606 $aPractice and Hospital Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H68000 606 $aPrimary Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H51000 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 615 0$aNursing administration. 615 0$aEmergency medicine. 615 0$aCritical care medicine. 615 0$aPractice of medicine. 615 0$aPrimary care (Medicine). 615 0$aPublic health. 615 14$aNursing Management. 615 24$aEmergency Medicine. 615 24$aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine. 615 24$aPractice and Hospital Management. 615 24$aPrimary Care Medicine. 615 24$aPublic Health. 676 $a617.091724 702 $aBonito$b Sheila$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMinami$b Hiroko$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254484903321 996 $aRole of Nurses in Disaster Management in Asia Pacific$91759363 997 $aUNINA
