平成28年熊本地震・令和2年7月豪雨から学んだこと

Lessons learned from the experiences of the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake and the July 2020 heavy rain disaster

　本稿では平成28（2016）年熊本地震時の業務復旧活動の経験，令和2（2020）年7月豪雨に対する避難所などへの災害リハビリテーション（以下，リハ）支援の経験をナラティブに報告した．災害はどこで発生するかわからない．誰もが支援者にも受援者にもなりうる．専門職として冷静かつ俯瞰的に自身の立場を判断し行動することが大切である．そのためには，被災・支援・受援の経験前に災害リハの教育を受けておくことが必要と感じている．

　In this narrative report, we describe our experiences, firstly performing hospital service recovery activities during the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake, and secondly providing disaster rehabilitation (rehab) support to evacuation shelters and other facilities following the July 2020 heavy rains disaster. Disasters can occur anywhere, and anyone can become a victim, a support-provider, or a support-recipient. As professionals, it is necessary to calmly and comprehensively assess one's own role and act accordingly. It is important to receive disaster rehab education in advance.
