The increasing effect of climate change and disasters presents health threats globally, as it brings about infectious diseases, heat-related diseases, and related stress. This study aims at examining disaster- and climate-change-related medicine, a field that tackles the means, methods, and ways through which the sector ensures that it becomes more resilient during disasters and is prepared adequately to handle disasters and strengthens health systems' capacity to cope with disaster risks in regions that are prone to such disasters.

Methodology: Quantitative surveys of health information from disaster zones were conducted and complemented by qualitative interviews with doctors and relevant authorities. Actual flood and heat wave situations in India were modelled to capture healthcare response scenarios. Quantitative data analysed the impact of climate change on medical interventions, and in terms of qualitative data, reviews discussed the major advances in disaster medicine.

Results: The completed analysis showed that the implementation of specific climate-related protocols decreased the mortality by 25% in disaster situations. Public awareness and regular pre-disaster immunisation checks took massive steps towards controlling diseases that are spread by vectors such as dengue and malaria. Efforts that provided mental health support, such as telemedicine, lowered the psychological distress in the targeted groups by 40%. The specific recommendations for climate change adaptation are the extension of healthcare structures that are immune to climate change, disaster preparedness education for medical personnel, and a focus on and the enhancement of community-based health initiatives.
