9 Factors that determine whether MH consequences will occur Nature of Disaster Nature of Exposure and severity of harm Individual Vulnerabilities Unique vulnerabilities of elderly
10 Psychosocial Consequences of Disasters Psychosocial outcomes are shaped by the nature of the disaster Disasters with 2 or more of the following features result in the greatest behavioral impact: Extensive injury, threat to life or loss of life Extreme and widespread damage to property Destruction of social support and ongoing financial problems Human intentionality Norris et al. 2002
11 Psychosocial Consequences of Disasters Psychosocial outcomes are shaped by the nature of the disaster Acts of mass violence appear to produce more severe impairment in a higher proportion of survivors than do natural disasters Human intentionality, unpredictability, unfamiliarity, lack of preventability, societal disruption Lack of control Norris et al. 2002; Butler et al. 2003
12 Psychosocial Outcomes Psychiatric Conditions - PTSD - Depression - GAD - Panic Non-specific Distress Symptoms Health Problems Chronic Living Problems Loss of Psychosocial Resources
13 Psychosocial consequences of disasters Most people will report non specific distress, health problems, chronic problems in living (domestic violence increases), resource loss Most people improve with time A minority of survivors continue to be distressed long after the event Risk factors for adverse outcomes: more severe exposure, female gender, middle age, ethnic minority group, prior psychiatric problems, and poor psychosocial resources

15 Hurricane Andrew South Florida, August 24, 1992
16 ANDREW: High Impact Storm 25% of highly exposed residents of Dade County met criteria for PTSD 6 months later Many people felt less positive about the quality of social relationships than they had felt before the storm perceptions of social support may be affected by disaster experience Perilla et.al. 2002

19 Katrina: High impact storm One year later, 6.4% prevalence of suicidal ideas in general population Increase in serious mental illness by 89%, PTSD by 32% Elderly disproportionately affected with highest health decline, mortality and suicide rates Weisler RH, et al Mental Health and Recovery in the Gulf Coast After Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Journal of the American Medical Association 2006; 296: Wang PS, et al.: Mental Health Service Use Among Hurricane Katrina Survivors in the Eight Months After the Disaster.

Molecular Psychiatry 2008 Apr; 13(4): Epub 2008 Jan 8.
20 Risk of long-term MH sequelae Based on degree to which the person was affected (personal injury, loss of property) and proximity to greatest area of destruction Compared to younger group, most studies suggest elderly have lower rates of MH consequences 70-90% of older adults report experiencing at least one lifetime traumatic event Fewer than 2% of >10,000 PTSD studies between 1980 and 2008 focused on elderly
