Inability to engage in problem solving would not be a common experience for a nurse working with clients affected by a disaster event. Nurses are often trained to be able to problem solve and make quick decisions in high-stakes situations. It is more common for nurses to experience feelings of sadness, grief, anger, denial of rest and recovery time, and feeling the need to stay on scene until all work is finished.
