Extensive environmental destruction and infrastructure damages caused by the disasters led to humanity crises humanity crises where thousands people died, injured and homeless. These disastrous situations were not only caused social-economic hardships, but also various health issues, such as lack of clean water and sanitation, rise of communicable diseases, disruption of function of health services and so on (UoK, 2019; INDMA, 2018).

One-year afterward, significant progress has been accomplished to restore the situation. Through sundry efforts on recovery and rehabilitation processes, infrastructures and public facilities, including health services, gradually return to operate steadily. Environmental damages have also repaired. Nevertheless, continuing evaluation is required in order to improve the local capacity to encounter the expected disaster.
