Document
and Record Replacement
... individual and family case management, connecting survivors to resources, taking care of unmet needs...
Heroic Phase - disaster strikes - emergency response: hours to days
Emotions
- shock, fear, anger. Some people will look normal and
others will be unable to function.
Honeymoon Phase - lasts from days to 3
months
Emotions
- shock, optimism. Community pulls together with a sense of
unity. Most grief responses are suppressed.
Repair/Rebuilding
Phase
- lasts from 3 weeks to 6 months
Emotions
- Shock, grief, inability to move forward, despair,
confusion and nightmares. Blame and anger are directed to
officials, agencies and often self. Discouragement sets in
as community loses interest and money dwindles.
Recovery Phase - up to 3 to 5 years.
Emotions
- self-ownership of recovery and life-focus turns forward to
the future instead of emphasis on disaster. Disaster no
longer defines self-image, emotions, plans and
relationships. There is
acceptance.
