Abstract

Background: Structure sustained structural damage, lost possessions, and incurred financial losses due to the fire. Disaster simulation is a tool that can be used to train people to prepare themselves in the face of disasters. The goal of the study is to determine how fire simulation affects community readiness in the event of a residential fire disaster. Methods: The study employs a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test without a control group. A total of 20 respondents participated in a fire disaster simulation, and their preparedness levels were evaluated before and after the simulation using purposive sampling. Results: The simulation was provided, the all of respondents had a preparedness level categorized as unprepared, with 20 respondents (100%). After the preparedness simulation, the number of respondents who initially were unprepared increased, with 2 respondents (10%) now categorized as very prepared and 18 respondents (90%) as prepared. The Wilcoxon test analysis shows a p-value of 0.000, which indicates that there is an effect of fire simulation on the community's preparedness to face household fires. Conclusion: The fire simulation had a positive impact on enhancing community preparedness for household fires.
