Table 2.

Emerged themes for natural disasters and disease outbreaks.

Type of disaster Emerged themes
Natural disaster Excited and thrilled to work
Concerned for self and family safety
No real differences between working in everyday operations and working during natural disasters
Disease outbreaks Concern due to lack of knowledge and the possibility of infecting others.
The risk of working during disease outbreaks is the same as the risk of working in day-to-day operations.
