Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Nonconventional terrorism uses chemical, biological, and nuclear means to release a toxin, contaminate a food source, or contaminate some other product. This would not be classified as a disaster or a conventional type of terrorist attack.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,3,4,5

Disaster nursing competencies include risk reduction, disease prevention, and health promotion; policy development and planning; community care; and ethical and legal practice. The nursing process is not considered a core competency for disaster nursing.
