Emergency Supply Kits and Medical Self-Sufficiency: Lessons from Hurricane Ian
This study did not provide evidence that ESKs promote medical self-sufficiency. However, it did not characterize the medication in households' ESKs or the type, duration, and severity of CHCs, and could have had uncontrolled confounding. Characterization of such factors would be important in future studies of ESKs and self-sufficiency among people with CHCs.
