尼泊尔在 2015 年经历了两次大地震,造成 9,000 人死亡、23,000 多人受伤、约 200 万人流离失所,并摧毁了约 1,000 个医疗设施。地震后不久出现的健康问题和疾病爆发是主要优先事项。然而,社区参与中的健康教育、健康促进和培训等预防措施基本上仍未得到落实。在尼泊尔,通过提供灾害知识、制定应急计划和进行灾害演习来建立社区防备是很有希望的,因为地理上的交通不便总是阻碍灾害期间的及时管理。在尼泊尔无需额外资源即可采取的步骤包括确定可以参与健康促进举措的社区领导人和志愿者、培训由此确定的社区志愿者、组建社区工作队、在持续支持(培训和资源)下移交责任以及对社区工作队进行监督。
Nepal underwent two major earthquakes during 2015 which claimed 9,000 deaths, left more than 23,000 injured, displaced about 2 million people and destroyed about 1,000 health facilities. Emerging health issues and disease outbreaks soon after the earthquakes were major priorities. However, preventive measures such as health education, health promotion and trainings embedded in community engagement remained largely unimplemented. Establishing community preparedness by delivering knowledge about the disasters, preparing contingency plans and conducting disaster drills can be promising in Nepal where geographical inaccessibility invariably impedes the on time management during disasters. The steps that could be taken in Nepal without additional resources include identifying community leaders and volunteers who could participate in health promotion initiatives, training of thus identified community volunteers, formation of community task force, devolvement of responsibilities with continual support (trainings and resources) and supervision of the community task force.
