Disaster Planning

Question 1 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

In the event that an earthquake damages a hospital, the disaster plan should include information regarding which of the following? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
evacuating patients and staff
B
delivering food and water to patients
C
protecting staff from contagious disease
D
asking additional nursing staff to come to the hospital

Explanation

A hospital earthquake disaster plan should cover how to evacuate patients and staff if the building is unsafe, how to provide patients with essentials such as food and water, and how to bring in additional nursing staff to maintain care. Protecting staff from contagious disease is important in other emergency situations, but it is not a specific response to earthquake damage.
