Abstract
To understand the role as a nurse working in an emergency primary care center during times of disaster, we performed disaster simulative desk-top training drills. During the simulative training, the Emergo Train System (ETS) was used.
ETS: Is an interactive educational simulation system developed at the Centre for Teaching and Research in Disaster Medicine and Traumatology (KMC) at the University of Linkoping, Sweden. ETS can be used for education, training, and simulations of emergencies and disasters. ETS can be used to test and evaluate incident command systems, hospital preparedness and surge capacity. www.emergotrain.com
From the training and the discussion held afterwards, we were able to recognize the need to be more aware of the crisis in disaster situations by strengthening the disaster education system and possibly initiating an action card system in the near future.
