Abstract

Background: KNOWLEDGE, RISK PERCEPTION, and PREPAREDNESS of individuals regarding EARTHQUAKE have a vital role in the reduction of its consequences. This study was conducted to evaluate the level PREPAREDNESS, KNOWLEDGE, and RISK PERCEPTION regarding EARTHQUAKE among the personnel of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 215 personnel of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. The subjects were randomly selected. Data were gathered using a researcher-made questionnaire including demographic data, and RISK PERCEPTION, KNOWLEDGE, and PREPAREDNESS regarding EARTHQUAKE. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS software. All P values of less than 0.05 were considered significant. Findings: Most of the studied individuals were women (54%), had diploma and higher levels of education (85%), had 30-40 years of age (50%), and were married (75.3%). Most of them had an intermediate level of PREPAREDNESS and RISK PERCEPTION and a high level of KNOWLEDGE in regards to EARTHQUAKE.Conclusion: The subjects in this study had a high educational level, and due to their job and education, had received some training regarding EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS. However, their level of EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS was at an intermediate level. Since the EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS level of the public is at a lower level, similar studies with greater sample size among the public are required in order to plan for the promotion of the present situation.
