Incorporating disaster management into nursing higher education enhances nurses’ competencies in their professional careers. This study aims to evaluate the disaster response self-efficacy of nursing students studying in the region affected by the earthquakes that occurred on February 6, 2023.
Material and Methods: The research, designed as a descriptive and cross-sectional, was conducted with 838 nursing students between March and April 2023. The data were collected using a Personal Information Form and the Disaster Response Self-Efficacy Scale. The significance level of the study was found to be p<0.05.
Results: The average age of the students was 20.72±2.09, with 78.6% being female, 49% having experienced a loss among their family or friends, and 10.1% having received disaster-related training. The participants’ total scale score average was 57.92±14.17. A statistically significant difference was found between gender, class levels, receiving disaster-related training, participating in search and rescue operations in the earthquake region, and the total scale score.
Conclusion: It was determined that the self-efficacy of student nurses in disaster response was at a moderate level.
