| description | A natural disaster is a major adverse event resulting from natural processes
of the Earth which affects a vulnerable area and causes loss of life, health,
property and other economic values. The issue of mitigating the negative
impact of natural hazards on the society is of great importance today when we
strive to keep social sustainability. Common immediate negative consequences
for people who survived a natural disaster are losses of relative and
friends, health, home, other property and values. The stress and the
psychological pressure worsen even more the health status. So there is need
of arranging in short term the accommodation and recreation of the victims of
natural disaster. These two tasks can be successfully solved by using the
potential of the tourist industry and especially of health tourism industry.
The touristic infrastructure can ensure both accommodation and recreation of
large groups of people, especially in short terms (15-30 days). In most cases
these terms are enough to overcome the stress and to ensure enough time for
finding long-term living solutions. The aim of this article is to study the
potential of Bulgarian tourism infrastructure (hotels) and especially health
(SPA, wellness) tourism infrastructure to ensure recreation for victims of
natural hazards. |
