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.
