    The Earthquakes in Turkey and Their Effects on Nursing and Community Health
    (Wiley, 2023) Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Dikec, Guel; Harmanci Seren, Arzu Kader
    BackgroundSevere damage was experienced in 10 provinces in Turkey, and the north of Syria, with the earthquakes that hit Kahramanmaras at midnight and afternoon on February 6, 2023. AimThe authors aimed to give brief information to the international nursing community about the situation related to earthquakes in the aspects of nurses. ConclusionThese earthquakes caused traumatic processes in the affected regions. Many people, including nurses and other healthcare professionals, died or were injured. The results demonstrated that the required preparedness had not been applied. Nurses went to these areas voluntarily or on assignment and cared for individuals with injured. The universities in the country passed to distance education because of the shortage of safe places for victims. This situation also negatively influenced nursing education and clinical practice by interrupting in-person education one more time after the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for nursing and nursing policySince the outcomes show a need for well-organized health and nursing care, policymakers may consider getting nurses' contributions to the disaster preparedness and management policy-making processes.

    (Mehmet Akif Ersoy Univ, 2023) Aydin, Gulsen Cetin; Aytac, Serpil
    Disasters are natural events that vary in severity and impact depending on the location. Disasters damage buildings, products, crops, the environment, people, animals, in short, everything animate and inanimate, and cause living beings to lose their lives regardless of time and place. Individuals are psychologically affected negatively by disasters such as earthquakes. The aim of this study is to evaluate the psycho-social impact of the earthquake that occurred in Kahramanmaras in southeast Turkey on February 6, 2023, on women, one of the disadvantaged groups, in Turkey. As a result of the research, it was understood that the last earthquake disaster in Turkey had a significant impact on women, and how important psychological resilience is in being prepared for disasters. According to the results of the research, it was seen that women had difficulties in coping with the problems they faced during and after the earthquake, they faced stress/depression/anxiety, burnout and the regional conditions had a significant impact on this process. In this direction, it was observed that the earthquake negatively affected the women participating in the research, causing their psychological health disorders and causing depression symptoms.
