Disaster Medicine is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the medical response to emergencies and disasters. This includes natural disasters like earthquakes and floods, as well as man-made events such as terrorist attacks or industrial accidents. The goal is to provide effective medical care to affected populations, often in challenging and resource-limited environments. Practitioners in Disaster Medicine work to prepare for, respond to, and recover from these events. They coordinate with various agencies, including emergency services and public health organizations, to ensure that medical resources are available and that care is delivered efficiently during crises.
