Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究の成果は、災害を体験した循環器疾患をもつ人の対象理解を深め、災害後の看護ケアの提供が必要となる時期、被災した循環器疾患をもつ人の心身の状態をアセスメントする視点、看護援助の提供方法や実施内容などの実際の看護ケア提供の手がかりとなる。また、本研究は応急仮設住宅に暮らす人々の健康と生活を支える看護職者が減少する時期に焦点を当てたため、応急仮設住宅の時期の支援の重要性を示し、被災した人々の健康支援活動に携わる被災地内外の看護職者が効率よく、かつ効果的に支援することを可能にする。
