The aim of this study was to evaluate nurse leader confidence in emergency management and disaster preparedness.
There is a dearth of evidence in the literature regarding the preparation of nurse leaders to manage emergencies and disasters. Research suggests significant gaps in nurse leader confidence across roles and in structured education that prepares nurse leaders across the spectrum of experience to manage in a crisis.
An exploratory, cross-sectional survey included a sample of 432 RNs who are members of the Northwest Organization for Nurse Leaders.
Results indicate significant variance in nurse leader confidence across roles, experience, and previous disaster-related education. Positive associations regarding nurse leaders' confidence in managing disasters exist with more advanced positions, advanced education, and structured training.
Nursing leaders lack consistent education that prepares them for emergency and disaster management. Nurse leaders across all levels would benefit from formal education in these areas.
本研究旨在评估护士领导者在紧急管理和灾害准备方面的信心。
文献中关于护士领导者应对紧急情况和灾害的准备情况的证据很少。研究表明，护士领导者在不同角色和结构化教育方面的信心存在显著差距，这些教育旨在培养经验丰富的护士领导者在危机中进行管理。
一项探索性、横断面调查包括了 432 名西北组织护士领导者协会的注册护士。
结果表明，护士领导者在角色、经验和先前与灾害相关的教育方面的信心存在显著差异。在管理灾害方面，护士领导者的信心与更高级别的职位、更高的教育水平和结构化培训呈正相关。
护理领导者缺乏为紧急和灾害管理做好准备的一致教育。各级护士领导者都将受益于这些领域的正规教育。
