Answer 1

Answer: D. When an organization is planning for mass casualty incidents, an effective approach is to request law enforcement personnel to develop a separate plan for mass casualty incidents for the organization.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass casualty incident refers to a situation in which medical services are overwhelmed by the number of casualties.

From the options given, the false statement is that "When an organization is planning for mass casualty incidents, an effective approach is to request law enforcement personnel to develop a separate plan for mass casualty incidents for the organization".

This is incorrect. In a mass casualty, a separate plan cannot be developed for an organization. All the casualties are entitled to same plan.
