	A framework for mental health and psychosocial support in radiological and nuclear emergencies World Health Organization (WHO) and InterAgency Standing Committee (IASC) (2020) C_WHO View PDF(15) Download (17) Add to my MEDBOX The health impact of radiological and nuclear emergencies can last for decades. Lessons learned from past radiological and nuclear accidents have demonstrated that the mental health and psychosocial consequences can outweigh the direct physical health impacts of radiation exposure. International radiation emergency preparedness and response standards outline provisions for mitigating these effects. Yet, practical guidance for addressing the mental health and psychosocial aspects of radiation emergencies remains scarce. This framework aims to promote integration between the MHPSS and radiation protection fields. It is intended for officials and specialists involved in radiation emergency planning and risk management as well as MHPSS experts working in health emergencies Tags: Mental Health, nuclear, specific hazards, conflict, MHPSS, nuclear weapons, emergeny, community level, psychosocial support, radiological event, Source: https://apps.who.int/iris/rest/bitstream

	Guide for Emergency Preparedness and Correct Action in Emergency Situations Federal Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance (BBK) (2017) C3 Open external link (2030) Add to my MEDBOX Staying safe in spite of a disaster. What can you do for your safety in the event of a disaster? In spring 2013, after weeks of rain, whole areas of southern, eastern and northern Germany were beset by catastrophic floods. Settlements vanished in the floods up to the roofs of the houses, tens of thousands of emergency personnel and volunteers struggled against the water with sandbags. Villages and parts of towns had to be evacuated, and the citizens were only able to take the essentials with them. Disasters are part of life. Almost every day, we can read about disasters and largescale emergencies in a variety of media and see the images of destruction and suffering. These are not just major disasters which affect large areas for a long time. Local torrential rain, a severe storm, an electric power breakdown resulting from such a storm, or a house fire can trigger a very personal disaster for each individual, each family, which has to be overcome. Take the time to contemplate your personal emergency planning. This brochure aims to help you to develop your personal preparedness plan. The brochure is also available in different languages: https://www.bbk.bund.de/DE/Service/Publikationen/Broschürenfaltblätter/Ratgeber_node.htm Tags: preparedness and response plan, Disaster Preparedness, Epidemic Preparedness, emergency plan, emergency, preparedness, ABC, emergency risk, Germany, Source: https://www.bbk.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downl
