A)During the preparedness phase, nurses must also develop an emergency plan for themselves and their immediate families. When this plan is complete, nurses can be confident that their families are prepared to weather an emergency in relative safety. With this assurance, nurses who choose to assist in a disaster or who are required to remain at the hospital during a disaster will be able to leave their families without delay and remain available until no longer needed. Part of this plan should include means of escape such as fire escape ladders. The nurse's family is not qualified to perform nursing interventions and should go to a safe place in an emergency, not join the nurse where she is. No place is completely safe from all potential disasters.
