ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Household emergency preparedness, at the individual and family micro-level, is often identified as below national disaster preparedness standards.

AIMS:

Conceptual clarity of household emergency preparedness is foundational for disaster preparedness research, theory construction, and instrument use. MATERIALS &

METHODS:

Adhering to Walker and Avant's (2019) concept analysis method, the purpose of this paper is to outline the concept of household emergency preparedness by identifying the uses of the concept, the defining attributes, antecedents, consequences, and empirical referents. Literature sources were identified using the Cumulative Index for Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL), ProQuest Central, PsycInfo, PubMed, and government websites.

CONCLUSION:

Concept clarification is critical for future selection of research designs involving multidisciplinary community-based interventions for household emergency preparedness, as well as to understand how preparedness efforts at the individual and family micro-level may influence larger disaster preparedness system outcomes.
