Background: Nurses are members of interprofessional cadres of health care professions with vital roles as disaster shelter volunteers and leaders for recovery efforts. Nurses must be equipped with the skills needed to care for communities postdisaster. Providing students with opportunities to engage in interprofessional simulated disaster experiences is an effective method for preparing them to work in leadership roles during disasters. This article describes a case study in the use of simulation to enhance health care students' knowledge and interprofessional collaboration roles in disaster management. Method: The Disaster Aftermath Interprofessional Simulation (DAIS) tabletop exercise was developed by nursing and public health faculty. Results: Students prioritized health interventions and investigated a foodborne outbreak in an emergency shelter. Students applied knowledge from their respective disciplines, collaborating to develop plans to protect populations. Conclusion: The DAIS is an innovative method for preparing nursing students to work as interprofessional team members in disaster response and recovery. [ J Nurs Educ . 2020;59(6):353–356.]

There is a continued need for research to better understand the influence social media has on parental vaccination attitudes and behaviors, especially research capturing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The goal of this study was to explore parents' perspectives related to the impact the pandemic had on 1) social media engagement, 2) vaccine messaging on social media, and 3) factors to guide future intervention development. Between February and March 2022, 6 online, synchronous, text-based focus groups were conducted with parents of adolescents aged 11 to 17 years. Participants who all utilized social media were recruited from across the United States. Qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis. A total of 64 parents participated. Average age was 47 years, and participants were predominantly White (71.9%), female (84.3%), and engaged with social media multiple times per day (51.6%). Participants (95.3%) viewed obtaining all recommended vaccines as important or very important; however, overall vaccination rates for their adolescents were varied (50% ≥1 dose HPV; 59.4% MenACWY; 78.1% Tdap; 65.6% Flu; 81.3% COVID-19). Three themes emerged highlighting the pandemic's impact on parent's (1) general patterns of social media use, (2) engagement about vaccines on social media and off-line behaviors related to vaccination, and (3) perspectives for developing a credible and trustworthy social media intervention about vaccination. Participants reported fatigue from contentious vaccine-related content on social media and desired future messaging to be from recognizable health institutions/associations with links to reputable resources. Plus, providers should continue to provide strong vaccine recommendations in clinic.
