GİRİŞ: Afetlerde sağlık hizmetlerinin yönetildiği merkezlerin stratejik konumu, etkili acil durum yönetimi açısından kritik öneme sahiptir. Bu araştırma, afet senaryolarında sağlık hizmetlerini yönetmek için gerekli olan temel nitelikleri inceleyerek altyapı, iletişim ve kaynak yönetimine vurgu yapmaktadır. YÖNTEM: Çalışmada, kamu sağlığının korunmasına yönelik afet yönetimi hazırlıklarında model geliştirme amacıyla uyarlanmış bir nitel analiz çerçevesi kullanılmıştır. Altı yüksek-riskli afet senaryosunun tematik analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu senaryolar, afet yanıtı sırasında karşılaşılan bir dizi zorluğu kapsamaktır ve bu amaçla özgün olarak tasarlanmıştır. Kırılganlıklar ile iletişimde oluşabilecek aksaklıklar üzerinde durulmuştur. Nicel analiz yaklaşımıyla, ortak temalar belirlenmiş, hedeflenen sonuçlarla uyumlu hale getirilmiş, afetlerde sağlık hizmetinin optimum koşullarda yönetilmesi amacıyla, etkili unsurlar kapsamlı şekilde incelenmiş, nihai olarak model geliştirilmişitr. BULGULAR: Özellikle depremlerde, sağlık hizmetleri merkezlerinin suboptimal konumlanmış olması, beraberinde önemli riskler getirmektedir. Senaryolar, acil durum yanıtını engelleyen trafik sıkışıklığı, yapısal kırılganlıklar ve sel gibi sorunları öne çıkarmaktadır. Bu zorluklar, kaynak kıtlığına yol açmakta ve kamu sağlığı müdahalelerini karmaşık hale getirmekte, yüksek riskli tesislere yakınlık ise ek tehditler oluşturmaktadır. TARTIŞMA: Altı senaryonun analizi, altyapı hasarı, acil hizmetler üzerindeki baskı, iletişim hataları, erişim sınırlamaları ve ruh sağlığı etkileri gibi ortak temaları ortaya çıkarmıştır. Önerilen model, risk değerlendirmesi, altyapı iyileştirmeleri ve toplum katılımını vurgulamaktadır. Dayanıklılığım ve yanıt etkinliğinin artırılması amaçlamaktadır. SONUÇ: Araştırmada, afet risklerini azaltmak için stratejik olarak yerleştirilmiş sağlık hizmetleri merkezlerine olan ihtiyacı vurgulanmaktadır. Model, etkin afet yönetimi konusunda önemli öngörüler sunmaktadır. Bulguların evrensel ölçekte uygulanabilir olması ve hazırlık stratejilerinin yaygınlaştırılabilir olması için, araştırmaların sürdürülmesi önerilmektedir. Modelin bileşenlerini temsil eden bir şema, paydaşların anlayışını artırmak ve uygulamayı kolaylaştırmak amacıyla sağlanmıştır. Yapılan literatür taramasında, afetlerde sağlık hizmetleri merkezlerinin konumunu ve kilit özelliklerini tanımlayan bir kent modelinin ve buna ait bileşenlerin temsil edildiği bir şemanın ilk kez sunulduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu bakış açısıyla araştırma, önemli bir eksikliğe dikkat çekmektedir.

INTRODUCTION: The strategic location of health services headquarters during disasters is critical for effective emergency management. This research examines essential qualities necessary for managing health services in disaster scenarios, emphasizing infrastructure, communication, and resource management. METHODS: This study utilized an adapted qualitative analysis framework to develop a model for public health preparedness and disaster management, employing thematic analysis of six high-risk disaster scenarios. These scenarios were deliberately selected to encapsulate a range of challenges encountered during disaster response, with a particular emphasis on vulnerabilities and communication breakdowns. The analytical approach was tailored to align with the specific themes and intended outcomes of the study, facilitating a comprehensive exploration of the factors influencing effective health service management in disaster contexts. RESULTS: The findings illustrate significant risks associated with suboptimal headquarters location, particularly during earthquakes. Scenarios highlighted issues such as traffic congestion, structural vulnerabilities, and flooding that impede emergency response. These challenges lead to resource shortages and complicate public health interventions, while proximity to high-risk facilities poses additional threats. DISCUSSION: Analysis of the six scenarios revealed common themes: infrastructure damage, strain on emergency services, communication failures, access limitations, and mental health repercussions. The proposed model emphasizes risk assessment, infrastructure improvements, and community engagement to enhance resilience and response efficacy. CONCLUSIONS: This research underscores the need for strategically located health service headquarters to mitigate disaster risks. While the model offers insights into effective disaster management, its findings are not universally applicable, necessitating further research to refine preparedness strategies in varied contexts. A diagram representing the model's components is provided to enhance stakeholder understanding and facilitate implementation. The literature review concludes that the location and key characteristics of health service centers in disasters have been identified. In this regard, the research highlights a significant gap, presenting for the first time a city model that describes these aspects along with a diagram representing its components.
