Non-consistent: allows for local contextWorkplace based – reliance on workplaceit could be argued that existing disaster education for nurses is somewhat haphazard and fragmented, and that the required competencies of a nurse to adequately perform in a disaster are not well understood. In the United States, core competencies for nurses in emergencies and disasters have been suggested (Gebbie & Qureshi, 2002); However, these are not necessarily applicable to the Australian context. Therefore, a need exists to develop a structured approach to train and educate the most appropriate nurses to the most appropriate level. Work has recently commenced on a proposed disaster education and training framework for the Australian context (FitzGerald, et al., 2010). However, this is in its infancy and requires further development and buy-in prior to implementation. Similarly, the World Health Organization and International Council of Nurses have developed a set of ‘disaster nursing competencies’ which will assist to progress this need (WHO & ICN, 2009).
