Even in 2018, more than seven years after the Great East Japan earthquake and Fukushima nuclear disaster, in excess of 40,000 former residents of the prefecture were living as refugees in other regions of Japan. We did so by determining the health status and living conditions of the refugees, the health status of supporters, and their healthcare needs through field work carried out in conjunction with residents and supporters, and gave health-promoting recommendations to address those needs (detailed below).
1. Salon: a place for refugees to congregate and a healthcare service hub. Salon activities were held regularly in a city in Fukushima Prefecture, which is home to more than 20,000 refugees today. A registered nurse was on duty on days the salon was open . Healthcare services included the following:
a)Consultations and health support to salon visitors b)Outreach-style health support: consultations and health support to public agency workers who provide continuous assistance to refugees c) Exchange with other salons or bodies run by local organizations from areas affected by evacuation orders. 2. Health support for supporters: regular health consultations for public agency workers related to municipalities that were issued an area-wide evacuation order. 3. Survey analysis: Health Status of Public Health Nurses in Fukushima Prefecture after the disaster. Data were compared with the results from a prior survey conducted in 2013.
We intend to make plans and implement the above recommenda tions for the next fiscal year with due consideration to these findings.
