What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether a home visit simulation can help nursing students learn earthquake preparedness. Participants conduct simulated home visits to assess risks and practice safety steps like "drop, cover, and hold." The goal is to improve their communication skills, earthquake awareness, and ability to learn on their own. If successful, this hands-on training could better prepare future nurses to lead community disaster readiness.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
home visit simulation-based earthquake preparedness training
What this could lead to
If effective, this training could become a standard part of nursing education, helping future nurses better prepare communities for earthquakes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-site study with only 39 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The training's real-world impact on actual disaster response remains untested.
