Question 1 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

What challenges would a hospital face during an unexpected emergency? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
finding enough space to treat patients
B
encouraging enough people to come to the hospital
C
having enough supplies on hand to deal with the emergency
D
managing the health of patients who were already admitted to the hospital

Explanation

An unexpected emergency can bring more patients than the hospital has room or resources to treat, so finding enough space and having adequate supplies are challenges. Staff must also continue caring for patients who were already admitted while responding to the emergency. Encouraging enough people to come to the hospital is not typically a challenge in this situation; the concern is managing the people who need care.
