Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to identify particulars of and problems related to disaster response measures of psychiatric hospitals in Japan, and conducted a questionnaire survey with nurse administrators of psychiatric hospitals in the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. The results showed that hospitals made efforts to improve disaster response measures following the earthquake mainly by adding particulars to disaster manuals (first responses), evacuation routes, guidance method, means of communication, information transmission, and assembly of employees, and management of stockpiled resources, as well as the creation of the Business Continuity Plans (BCP). Problems in disaster response measures included the review of disaster response manuals, creation of the BCP, and investigations of priority ranking (triage) at the time of disasters, evacuation guidance methods, means of communication, provision of stockpiled resources, disaster training, and staff education.
