Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to reveal the difficulties experienced by emergency health care workers in Batman province while providing emergency health care in the face of disasters and to measure their level of disaster awareness.Materials and Methods: The study was carried out in descriptive type. The study universe included 182 health care workers working under the chief physician of 112 Provincial Ambulance Service. Samples were not used in the study and aimed to reach the entire universe. The data were collected with the questionnaire prepared by the researchers. SPSS 25.0 statistical package program was used to evaluate the data. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant in analyses. Results: Of the 174 volunteers, 43.7% were male, and 56.3% were female. It seems that the participants were previously exposed to epidemics (37.6%), and earthquakes (30.6%). When asked about the disaster education status, 48.3% of the participants thought that the education they received would be effective in the case of a disaster, Participants who thought the disaster education they received would be effective were found to have the highest rate of finding themselves self-efficient in responding to disaster victims.Conclusion: In all provinces, especially in Batman where the study was conducted, all emergency health care workers' levels of disaster awareness and knowledge should be tested and all necessary education should be given. The education received should be strengthened with regular exercises with the participation of all emergency health care workers and updated by working on the missing details.
