平成18年度の日本赤十字杜第一ブロック支部合同災害救護訓練に、本学看護学科1年生が参加したのでその概要を述べる。また学習の結果を事後のアンケート調査にもとづき評価・考察したので報告する。日本赤十字社第一ブロック北海道、東北各支部の10救護班による大規模な救護訓練に際し、学生は模擬被災者や防災ボランティア、また運搬要員として参加し、災害時の被災者の心理、災害時のボランティアとしての運搬要員の困難さ、そして救護員に求められる態度などについて多くの学びを得た。This paper summarizes "The 2006 Disaster Relief Drill for Block 1 branches of the Japanese Red Cross Society", to which the first-year students in the Department of Nursing at our college/university participated. Also reported are the evaluation and the discussion of what they learned from this program, based upon a post hoc questionnaire survey. The program was conducted on a large scale, involving ten relief squads from the Hokkaido and Tohoku branches in Block 1. Acting as disaster victims, disaster-relief volunteers, or transporting staff, our students learned various things, including the psychology of victims during a disaster, the difficulty of working as a volunteer transporting staff in a disaster, and the kinds of behavior called for from a rescue worker
