Always on alert, the Red Cross assists the victims of some 60,000 disasters annually. Emergencies range from family house fires to the massive devastation wrought by earthqueakes, floods and hurricanes.
Since the early days of the Red Cross, nurses have played vital roles in coping with health care needs when disaster strikes. Red Cross nurses are involved with shelter nursing, health consultation, liaison with local medical authorities and follow-up with lost medications and medical equipment---as well and providing care for the caregivers.
