Hospital and nursing leaders should provide disaster training opportunities that included topics such as compiling resource inventories, formulating disaster drills and simulations, managing emergencies, and using emergency communication methods. Health policy-makers should be required to prioritize capacity-building training for front-line nurses as well as to develop and implement disaster management plans to better prepare nurses for future disasters.

Introduction: Professional nurses are expected to prepare for emergency and disaster situations. Therefore, we need to prepare pre-clinical nursing students for basic disaster management. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of disaster management basic training related to improving the student's preparedness to face disaster. Methods: This study used an experimental post-test only -the non-equivalent control group design recruited the sample using purposive sampling and the 50 students were divided into 2 groups: students who had basic disaster management training and t he students who only received disaster materials through their lectures. Results: The average index of disaster preparedness in the treatment group (χ = 5.4500) was higher than in the control group (χ = 3.7554). The result obtained ρ = 0,000 (α = 0.05) using the independent t-test. Conclusion: This showed that the basic disaster management training method significantly affected the level of disaster preparedness in the students. Therefore, the successful method can be applied for implementation in the 2018 curriculum.

The purpose of the study is to present the current situation and to provide a working perspective on nurses' preparedness for disasters.Literature review method was used in the study. The keywords "nurse" and "disaster" have been used in Turkish and English while being screened.It has been determined that studies that examine nurses' preparedness for disasters in Turkey are mostly descriptive and their samples are limited. It was seen that the studies in Turkey were carried out after 2010 and there was no research on this subject before. In addition, studies have shown that nurses' basic competencies for disaster preparedness need to be developed. The study revealed that the training of nurses for disasters in Turkey is inadequate and the nurses in Turkey do not see themselves prepared and sufficient to intervene in disasters similar to the results of the studies done in all other countries.
