Older Peoples Experiences of the Kaitaia Flood Evacuation

Disasters occur within the routines of everyday life and have a disruptive and destructive impact on human lives. To understand how older individuals make sense of a disaster, nine older adults in Kaitaia, New Zealand were interviewed about their experience of the July 2007 flood. The analysis revealed that their accounts of the disaster were incorpoated and integrated into their personal and social context. Important themes from those living independantly were: coping with limited assistance, their treasured possessions and social support and the community. Themes from those in rest homes were: ageing and dependency and the importance of protection, care and trust.
