The objective of this study was to identify primary health care nurses' competencies when responding to hydrological disasters in rural areas.
A descriptive, exploratory and qualitative study was developed. The Critical Incidents Technique was adopted. Twenty public health nurses who worked during the flood season in the years 2014 and 2015 in a rural area in southern Brazil were interviewed. Critical incidents and requirements identified in the data gave rise to the development of the competencies.
Thirty competencies were identified and classified in the domains of leadership and management, teamwork, health care, being community-oriented, communication, psychological support, health surveillance and education.
Although the competencies could be related to the established international competencies for nurses in disasters, a number were described only in this study. These competencies can contribute to the education and practice of nurses in primary health care, strengthening the capacity of the profession to face flood disaster situations in rural areas.
本研究的目的是确定农村地区基层医疗保健护士应对水文灾害时的能力。
开展了一项描述性、探索性和定性研究。采用了关键事件技术。对2014年和2015年在巴西南部农村地区洪水季节工作的20名公共卫生护士进行了访谈。数据中确定的关键事件和要求促成了这些能力的形成。
确定了30项能力，并将其分类为领导与管理、团队合作、医疗保健、以社区为导向、沟通、心理支持、健康监测和教育等领域。
尽管这些能力可能与既定的国际护士灾害应对能力相关，但其中一些能力仅在本研究中有所描述。这些能力有助于基层医疗保健护士的教育和实践，增强该专业应对农村地区洪水灾害情况的能力。
