Investigate local or national disasters that have occurred within the last 5 years. These can be related to climate emergencies, such as flood, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, wildfire, or volcanos.

Select one disaster and evaluate the emergency response that occurred for that event. Refer to topic Resources for additional information regarding different types of emergency response plans for local and national disasters.
Create about 8-10-slide PowerPoint presentation discussing the local or national disaster you selected and evaluate the emergence response. Create speaker notes of 100-250 words for each slide. For the presentation of your PowerPoint, use Loom to create a voice-over or a video. Refer to the topic Resources for additional guidance on recording your presentation with Loom. Include an additional slide for the title and Loom link at the beginning and an additional slide for References at the end.
Include the following in your presentation:
Describe the event and explain how it impacted the local or broader community.
Discuss the emergency response measures that were taken in responding to the event. Evaluate whether the emergency response measures created an appropriate, timely, and effective response. Provide examples and rationale.
Explain how emergency response efforts included marginalized communities. Discuss whether decision making during this time considered diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Discuss how the principles of a Christian worldview can be applied to ensure inclusion of marginalized communities in emergency response preparation and response.
Based on your evaluation, what could have been done differently or what could be done differently in the future? How could these suggestions be applied to a similar event?
Discuss the role of the DNP-prepared nurse when responding to this type of crisis as an emergency responder. How would you lead with moral courage in the emergency response? How would you prioritize and target critical resources to those who need them the most?
