The nurse working for the CDC should learn the signs and symptoms of chemical and biological agents, obtain a listing of health and law enforcement contacts, and obtain current knowledge of emergency management in planning for a bioterrorist attack. While assisting with the stockpiling of medications and assisting in triage at local hospitals may be important tasks in responding to a bioterrorist attack, they are not the best plan of the nurse in planning for such an attack.
