Framework for mental health intervention management on post-flood victims in Nigeria: A narrative review

The mental health effects of extreme weather events are widely known and are of rising concern, given the expected increases in such events due to the changing global climate. Large-scale natural disasters, particularly floods, are expected to have a greater impact on less developed and developing countries. Several studies have found a variety of mental health symptoms associated with natural disasters such as flooding. Individuals have mental illness because of a loss of life, property damage, or loss of livelihood due to excessive thinking about what occurred. However, disaster management in Nigeria has received little attention in terms of managing mental health interventions for flood victims. The methodology employed for this research was a qualitative narrative review that explored the articles pertinent to this field of study. As a result, the purpose of this essay is to create a mental health intervention management framework to help post-flood victims reestablish their normal.
