台湾国立成功大学看護学研究科「広域の文化看護」の学習プログラム
台湾国立成功大学医学院看護学修士課程学生6名と同学部3年生2名の計8名の学生が千葉大学看護学部に来学し、平成25年6月24日から7月19日の25日間にわたり、多文化看護および関連領域の学習を行いました。これは、台湾国立成功大学医学院看護学系の履修科目「多文化看護学（泛文化護理）」の一環であり、1か月程度の海外の大学・医療施設における学習とされています。
千葉大学看護学部では、本学および大学院看護学研究科の特色を活かしたプログラムを提供しました。中でも、本研究科が平成26年より開設する「災害看護グローバルリーダー養成プログラム」の紹介、ならびに福島県での常磐病院の見学が深く印象に残ったようです。
Learning experience in disaster nursing
Disaster nursing is currently given importance worldwide. Japan has experienced varied and unique calamities, including earthquakes, tsunamis, volcano eruptions, and even a nuclear disaster. Through the lectures given by 正木先生 and 進藤先生, we were impressed by the methods for accurate data collection and scientific analysis, as well as the significance of precise disaster prediction. We understood how to use policies and strategies to manage consequences caused by disasters. To reach a consensus, all experts from various disciplines should communicate with one another more frequently. A nursing professional, as a coordinator, is expected to lead the conversation and to prepare for coping strategies applicable to all possible scenarios. We should learn from failures, and then reconstruct and strive for recovery in a humble manner. As the saying goes, hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
To realize the implications of disaster nursing, we were offered an opportunity to visit 常磐病院, 福島 with 山本先生, 錢先生, and two doctoral students. We were shown photos and stories that struck us as touching. Although the patients we encountered were fortunate to have found their way out, we should still consider their physical and psychological status to ensure their safety. Moreover, quick decision making is a crucial factor in their recovery. Undoubtedly, hospital and health professionals have provided the best and most important refuge for the victims. These precious experiences helped us understand how to deal with complicated situations when facing such a big disaster, which might happen in Taiwan in high probability.
We are very grateful for the kindness and warm hospitality shown in making all the arrangements. Importantly, we also appreciate Dean Miyazaki and Professor Masaki of the Graduate School of Nursing, Chiba University, for arranging this learning experience for us. This appreciation is more than we can describe.
