Which best describes an incident command system (ICS)?

Answer
A
a description of why disaster plans are essential to medical facilities
B
an outline of how to keep a medical facility secure during a disaster
C
a description of which supplies should be utilized in a disaster
D
an outline of who is responsible for different components of a disaster plan

Explanation

An incident command system (ICS) establishes the organizational structure for managing an emergency, including who has authority and responsibility for different tasks. It is not primarily about explaining why plans matter, securing a facility, or choosing supplies. Therefore, the best description is an outline of who is responsible for different components of a disaster plan.
