Read More BACKGROUND: Heat wave adaptation is a new concept related to experiencing heat. The presentstudy aims at investigating a conceptual definition, that is, the mental framework of heat waveadaptation and its strategies.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A phenomenological study was performed to explain the mentalconcept. At the same time with the data collection process, data analysis was also performed usingColaizzi method. Semi‑structured interview method and purposeful sampling with maximum varietywere used. Interviews were conducted with 23 different subjects in the community. The accuracy ofthe data was guaranteed using Lincoln & Guba scientific accuracy criteria.RESULTS: The two main themes of the adaptation paradigm as well as its strategies were dividedinto the main categories of theoretical and operational concepts, as well as personal care measuresand government measures. Under the category of individual measures, we obtained “clothing,nutrition, building, place of residence and lifestyle,” and under the category of governance actions,the “managerial, research, health, organizational” subcategories were obtained.CONCLUSION: According to the results of the conceptual‑operational definition, heat wave adaptationis an active process and an effort to reduce the adverse effects of heat waves on individual andsocial life, and striking a balance that will not only result in individual awareness and actions thatwill lead to lifestyle changes, but also mostly requires integrated and comprehensive planning in thecommunity. On the one hand, heat waves could not only be regarded as a threat or danger, but canalso become an opportunity for the development of a community through identification and smartmeasures, and for adaptation, the community must take it as a risk. The community should have aplan in advance, apply the necessary rules and training, and use the new facilities and rules wherenecessary. This practical concept definition includes the main features of heat wave adaptation.
