This is a report of our attempt to provide more nutritious meals for evacuees at the Toyoura shelter. In that restricted and unusual situation, several specific factors had to be taken into consideration. Dietitians from Tenshi College, previously registered as volunteers and asked to help at the shelter, decided it would be best to use convenience store food, which has several advantages; it is hygienic, easy to obtain, and in no need of cooking. The experience of working in the shelter revealed three issues to be considered in attempting to provide more appropriate and prompt support for evacuees when future emergency assistance is required: 1. How can dietitians provide sufficiently nutritious meals, including micro-nutrients and how much we can handle specific nutritional needs of individuals? 2. What roles can dietitians play in terms of providing physical and psychological help? 3. How should volunteer workers from an organization better cooperate with other organizations in support systems? These issues regarding emergency assistance are critical but, unfortunately, yet to be studied. We hope our report will help encourage further research and that dietitians' contribution will be more widely understood and more appropriately utilized in emergency situations.
