The best response would be hospitals stating that they conduct practice disaster drills to ensure that staff are trained and prepared for potential disasters. Option A is helpful, but it only addresses the registration of health care professionals, not necessarily the hospital's own preparedness. Option B is a good start, but it does not demonstrate that the hospital has a comprehensive plan in place. Option C is unacceptable, as all hospitals should have disaster plans in place.
