I am delighted with all aspects of the course outline. It changes my perspective on the role of physical therapists during disasters and calamities. Physical therapists should be essential to disaster management and preparing for and responding to calamities like earthquakes and floods. It emphasizes the necessity of excellent rehabilitation following disasters. But it also underlines that physical therapists' responsibilities go beyond providing immediate therapy. It encompasses readiness and recovery and may include advocacy, assessment, coordination, and psycho-social support.

It is an excellent introduction to the topic by presenters with long field experience. In addition, it provides key guideline documents and references to assist PTs interested in pursuing this line of work in the future.

This course was informative! It showed where we were lacking in preparation for the acute onset of this recent pandemic. The information presented has prepared us if another pandemic should evolve. It also teaches us that constant assessment of resources is a must so that we are not caught unprepared for future events such as this.

This course has conveyed a true meaning for Rehabilitation Professionals! The license and practice are not the only tools to participate in an EMT, but reliability depends on qualifications, training and actual experiences in disaster and conflict settings.

This course provides in-depth knowledge of various types of catastrophic events, injury patterns, and different aspects of Early Rehabilitation. It offers standards for and roles of rehabilitation professionals and discusses the standards of care for Emergency Medical Teams. This introductory course provides a knowledge base for effective learning in subsequent program courses. I was most impressed by the story of one physiotherapist. Alberto Cairo, Physiotherapist and Head of the ICRC’s Orthopedic Program in Afghanistan, was able to change the quality of life for many people.
