| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we took an ethnographic approach to obtain a deeper understanding of the culture of network building among nursing professionals in nuclear precautionary zones (PAZ) in Japan. Our objectives were to identify the facilitators and barriers so we can provide evidence-based steps to further promote network building among nursing professionals in different sectors. After selecting 5 target PAZ, we interviewed 25 medical and non-medical personnel, including 13 public health nurses (PHNs) which we eventually focused on. We identified two overlapping domains. PHNs have nursing perspectives and professional skills that are hidden and not utilized in their current role; they are expected to coexist with other co-workers under a specific workplace culture and organizational structure as civil servants. In conclusion, it is important for PHNs to embody their nursing potential and build networks among nursing professionals in different sectors for nuclear disaster preparedness.
