Care for disaster response workers and volunteers after finishing activities
Care for volunteers who encountered tough situations
Pain of volunteer work
Inexperienced volunteers are sometimes
dispatched without enough explanation of the
work, such as removing debris that does not
require direct contact with affected people
because they are thought to be less burdened
mentally. However, everyone must feel
reluctance when entering buildings damaged
by a disaster and a space where toys and
furniture are left. It is natural to ache for the
dead.
Help recovery from damage
Volunteers often find corpses or body parts
during the removal of debris in the affected
area where many people are missing. A
volunteer who helped remove debris for the
first time found a corpse and felt shocked.
Since even professionals experience pain
when seeing a severely damaged body, it
must be a shocking event for an ordinary
volunteer. The organization which this
volunteer belonged made sure that the
volunteers who had painful experiences
during operation were protected from mental
damage by making regular phone calls.
In the field, care for affected people takes
priority and care for staff at organizations and
volunteers is deferred. When staff and
volunteers are in the field, they might not
notice because they are tensed up, but once
away from the field, the damage might
appear. It is necessary to check on staff and
volunteers who have finished activities as
regards their condition regularly.
