No Concurrent Control |
The study is a single-arm (pretest and posttest) design. The intervention (simulation-based education) will be compared to the participants own baseline knowledge and practice score on disaster preparedness. |
| Intervention |
Simulation-Based Training On Disaster Preparedness |
The detailed curriculum (3-hour module), with a duration of 3 hours per session, includes an educational session, scenario-based simulation, and debriefing on disaster preparedness.
The total duration of the program will be 1.5 years. |

Brief Summary
|
World Health Organization, more than 2.6 million people have
been affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, earthquakes,
hurricanes, heat waves, floods, or cold in the last decade. These
injuries cause high mortality (e.g., blunt force trauma, strangulation)
that may interfere with local treatment. Health Management World Health
Organization: A comprehensive guide describing emergency medical care in
disaster situations and treatment of injuries in case of disaster. To reduce the effects of an earthquake, education on
disaster preparedness activities is crucial. Activities related to disaster preparedness are carried out by a wide variety of groups and
individuals, including emergency response agencies, public servants,
corporations, individuals, and those who work for international
non-governmental and humanitarian organizations. People, communities, and
nations work to lessen their vulnerability and enhance their resilience to
disasters through the preparedness and mitigation processes, which were
replicated and elaborated earlier.
RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS: (We
will test the hypothesis at a significance level of 0.05). H1:
The mean post-test knowledge score is significantly higher than the pre-test
knowledge scores of schoolchildren after implementing the simulation-based disaster risk
management strategies on disaster preparedness. H2: The mean post-test practice score is significantly higher than the
pretest practice scores of schoolchildren after implementing the simulation-based disaster risk
management strategies on disaster preparedness. H3:
There is a significant correlation between post-test knowledge and practice
scores on disaster risk management strategies of disaster preparedness.
H4:
There is a significant association between pre-test knowledge and practice
scores on disaster risk management strategies of disaster preparedness of
school children with their selected socio-demographic variables.
