The document analyzes the use of criteria selection and big data to enhance disaster management planning in Malaysia. It conducts a PESTEL analysis to examine the political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal factors affecting disaster management. Environment and social factors are identified as most dominant. The analysis concludes that a criteria-based framework using PESTEL can help stakeholders evaluate plans and identifies using PESTEL and SWOT analyses together to guide strategic disaster planning.

Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms
It is primarily the purpose of nursing to provide health care to individuals so that they can achieve or maintain optimal health. It is, therefore, the nurses' responsibility to generate treatment plans based on the symptoms that patients experience. These treatment plans depend on nursing theories to safeguard that the health services given to patients are evidence-based. One such theory that informs the creation of assessment tools for patients' symptoms is the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms (TOUS). Thus, using this theory as a guide, the factors that I would look for in an assessment tool are their ability to cover the physiological, psychological, and situational factors of a patient's symptoms, their analysis of symptoms, and the outcomes of the symptoms.
According to Srivastava, the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms focuses on three major elements: the patient's symptoms, factors influencing the symptoms, and the outcomes of the symptoms (2021). The first thing I would look for in an assessment tool is whether it can identify the patient's symptoms. Patients experience multiple symptoms, meaning an assessment tool should cover the different types of symptoms a patient has, their intensity, duration, and quality.
Another factor I would look for in an assessment tool is whether it covers the three factors influencing the symptoms. Lenz highlights that the theory of unpleasant symptoms focuses on the three factors influencing patients' symptoms: physiological factors, psychological and situational factors (2018). An assessment tool that features these three factors will likely produce a holistic diagnosis of the patient's symptoms, leading to an effective treatment plan. Additionally, an assessment tool with all three elements ensures that all symptoms are captured for a correct diagnosis which aids in the quick recovery of the patients. Finally, the last thing I would look for in an assessment tool would be its ability to check for the consequences of the symptoms. Obtaining information regarding the impact of the symptoms is a crucial part of gaining insight into the causes of the symptoms. Nurses can deduce the extent of the unpleasant symptoms resulting from a disease or the side effects of a treatment plan.
In conclusion, the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms is effective in developing assessment tools that ensure they capture all the symptoms, the factors influencing the symptoms, and the effects of these symptoms. As Gomes notes, the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms is important in grouping symptoms which is essential in understanding the extent of the symptoms, prescription of interventions, and providing a framework for delivering diagnoses directed toward quality healthcare (2019).

Section 4.1External Analysis of Dominant Environmental Driving Forces
Introduction
This chapter discusses the importance and the components of an environmental analysis as
part of the strategic planning process for an HCO. This chapter introduces an external analysis
that uses a PESTLE framework for identifying the elements of the external environment. This
chapter then reviews legislation and governmental initiatives, which have a dramatic impact
on HCOs. Next, “Porter’s five forces” model, which also is known as the five forces model of
industry analysis, is explained and applied to an HCO. Finally, this chapter discusses internal
and external analyses and the use of a SWOT analysis, followed by an examination of how
resources, costs, and distinctive competencies affect strategic planning efforts.
4.1 External Analysis of Dominant
Environmental Driving Forces
It is vital for an HCO to gauge the external environment within which it operates. This, in fact,
should be standard practice for all organizations. Virtually anything that can happen prob-
ably will happen, eventually. We truly have no certainty about what things will be like in the
future, in spite of our attempts to make predictions or forecasts. Still, an HCO cannot afford to
let generalized eventualities and uncertainties keep it from being active in strategic planning,
and changing in response to environmental demands.
PESTLE is an acronym to describe the elements of the external environment that impact
an HCO’s planning process. These elements require specific analysis about their current or
potential impact on the organization’s planning and operations. PESTLE stands for politi-
cal, economic, sociocultural, technological, legal and eco-environmental forces, which exert
strong influences on how an HCO crafts and executes strategic plans. Figure 4.1 shows the
elements of PESTLE.
These elements also interact with each other to create additional ramifications. Consider

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

2. Central Theme
● The impact of Big Data in criteria selection and identification to enhance the
process of Disaster management plan.
● Exploration and identification of potential and possible criteria to be incorporated
in the current flood management plan.
● The understanding of the type of flood measures and decision goals implemented to
facilitate flood management plan and to examine the possible structured mechanism
for criteria selection based on the decision analysis technique.
3. PESTEL Analysis
● PESTEL analysis is a strategic framework commonly used to evaluate the business
environment in which a firm operates.
● The framework stands for Political, Economic, Social, Technological,
Environmental and Legal.
● The political factors affecting this situation would be readiness for political support
towards addressing climate change and mitigation of disasters caused by it.
● The economic factors affecting this situation would be economic support from
government and corporate entities. There should be incentives for businesses and
individuals to support sustainable goals.
4. ● The social factors affecting this situation would be creating awareness in the society towards
climate change and global warming. There should be awareness in the society to understand the
sensitivity and vulnerability of disasters caused by climate change.
● The technological factors affecting this situation is use of Big Data to analyse and identify the
criteria selection for flood management plan.
● The Environmental factors affecting this situation is climate change affecting rainfall patterns
and volume which is affecting the magnitude and frequency of these disasters.
● The Legal factors in this situation would be creating legal framework that helps in supporting
Disaster management plan.
5. Dominant Factors
Following are the major dominant factors-
● Environment is the major factor as it directly impacts the Disaster Management
Plan.
● Social factor as it shows how much vulnerability and readiness there is in the
society.
● Economic factor as there has to be incentives to support the Disaster Management
Plan.
6. Conclusion
● This study has proposed a framework that could be used as a guideline in
implementing flood management plans based on the MAIN index, data evolution
scenario, flood measures and criteria selection process in MAIN.
● Criteria based on the PESTEL framework would provide significant information to
stakeholders and policy makers in flood management planning.
● The framework can be replicated to manage other disasters and further improved to
cater to issues and challenges in disaster management, data management and
processing, and the disaster application strategy.
7. PESTEL and SWOT analysis
● PESTEL analysis is a framework or tool used to analyse and monitor the macro -
environmental factors that have an impact on an organisation. This framework
provides a very comprehensive understanding of the factors involved. The results of
this analysis is used to identify threats and weaknesses which is used in SWOT
analysis.
● SWOT stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and threats. Strengths and
weaknesses refer to internal factors while opportunities and threats focus on
external factors. A SWOT analysis helps evaluate where a company stands in a
competitive market and what steps need to be taken for further strategic planning,
helping decision-makers draw a future roadmap for the company.
