Disaster Preparedness Concept Map

Purpose:  The purpose of this assignment is to allow students the opportunity to address disaster preparedness in a scenario that requires primary, secondary and tertiary interventions.  This is an independent assignment.

ORDER NOW FOR CUSTOMIZED SOLUTION PAPERS

 

Task:  Students are expected to identify a disaster scenario and develop primary interventions (prior to disaster-think prevention of loss or mitigating adverse effects), secondary interventions (activities during the disaster that may help mitigate adverse events) and tertiary interventions (return to normal post event). Please use adequate and appropriate resources (at least three not including your text for a minimum total of four) to support your discussion/interventions.

Disaster Preparedness

Concept Mapping

 

Step 1

 

Choose Disaster Scenario-Mass Casualty-Explosioin, Bioterrrorism event or Tornado.  As you read the scenarios, think about the nurses’ role and scope of the event on available resources.  Focus on Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Prevention measures (Text pp 88-92).

 

 

Step 2

 

  • Center box: Aggregate (School or ED)
  • Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Intervention Boxes

 

 

Step 3

Inside each box/for each problem/area of concern

  • Assessment needs/data
  • Interventions-attempt to establish 3-5 interventions for each section.

Please have at least three resources in addition to your text (total 4) with at least one of the three (preferably more) being a research article.  All should support your EBP interventions.

 

Cite your resources in your concept map and provide a reference list.  Include an introduction and conclusion.

 

You may make the boxes any size or place them as you choose.  This is a template only for conceptualization. Please be as creative as you choose within the guidelines of the assignment.

 

Please use assignment rubric as a guideline for your assignment.
