BRehabilitating disaster victims
CDistributing relief funds
DIdentifying possible errors and risks
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Identifying possible errors and risks
1. The objectives of a mock drill include evaluating response, improving coordination, and identifying possible errors and risks.
2. So identifying possible errors and risks is a listed objective.
3. Rule out rehabilitating victims: that belongs to the transitional phase after a real disaster, not to a preparedness drill.
