Emergency Nurses and Disasters


Researchers: Karen Hammad, Paul Arbon, Kristine Gebbie, Alison Hutton

Nurses working in the emergency department play an important role in the healthcare response to disaster, yet very little is known about their experience. I am conducting a study about emergency nurses and disaster response. I would like to interview nurses who have worked in the emergency department during a response to an external disaster event about their experiences and understanding of disaster response. You will be asked to be involved in two interviews of approximately 60 minutes duration conducted via Skype.

If you would like to know more about this study or you would like to participate please don’t hesitate to contact me disaster.study@flinders.edu.au
