Disaster health is an emerging field that focuses on developing
prevention, preparation, response and recovery systems for dealing
with health problems that result from a disaster. As disasters
worldwide differ in their nature, scope and cultural context, a
thorough understanding of the fundamental tenets of sound disaster
health management is essential for both students and practitioners
to participate confidently and effectively in the field. Disaster
Health Management is the first comprehensive textbook to provide a
standard guide to terminology and management systems across the
entire spectrum of disaster health. Authored by experienced
educators, researchers and practitioners in disaster health
management, this textbook provides an authoritative overview of:
The conceptual basis for disaster management Systems and structures
for disaster management Managing disasters through the continuum of
preparedness, response and recovery The variations associated with
both natural and technological disasters The strategic
considerations associated with leadership, research, education and
future directions. Using Australasian systems and structures as
examples of generic principles which will find application
globally, Disaster Health Management is an essential text for both
undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as for
professionals involved in all aspects of disaster management.
