This study looks at how well kindergarten and elementary school teachers in Gümüşhane, Turkey, understand disaster management and pediatric first aid. It reports that 119 teachers took part by filling out a questionnaire. The results show that these teachers have a high level of knowledge about managing disasters and a moderate-to-high understanding of first aid for children. The study suggests that improving these skills can help reduce risks and injuries during disasters at schools.
