BACKGROUND: This study examines the experiences of diabetic patients who were displaced during the Israel-Hamas conflict, highlighting the substantial challenges they face in managing their health under these circumstances.
METHODS: A qualitative-phenomenological approach was employed, focusing on the experiences of 14 individuals with diabetes who were displaced during the conflict. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and subsequently subjected to content analysis.
RESULTS: Three central themes emerged: (1) "I left without clothes and medications": Participants described the chaotic evacuation process and the difficulty in maintaining diabetes care without their supplies. (2) "Dual coping": Participants struggled with managing their diabetes while adapting to new, temporary living conditions that disrupted their care routines. (3) Seeking inner resilience while drawing strength from external support: This theme reflected the importance of internal resilience and support from family, friends, and healthcare professionals in coping with health management and displacement challenges.
CONCLUSIONS: The study underscores the significant challenges diabetes patients face during conflict evacuation, including disruptions in their routine care, heightened psychological stress, and the essential role of support systems. These findings underscore the need for emergency preparedness plans to ensure continuity of care for patients with chronic conditions during crises.
