Explanation:

Question 1

In emergency management, Level 1 emergencies are typically the least severe, where a patient can safely forgo care or a scheduled visit with low risk of harm.

In an emergency, agencies involved in patient care are usually required to physically evacuate or transport patients. So the statement "The Agency is not required..." is false.

In emergency preparedness, the Case Manager is often responsible for declaring the Emergency Preparedness Plan effective, coordinating case - related aspects of the emergency response.

Answer:

A. Level 1
