Question

1. what is one benefit of using a family meeting to discuss safety plans?

a. it ensures everyone knows their responsibilities
b. it shortens the evacuation time
c. it eliminates the need for safety drills
d. it reduces the need for an emergency kit

Explanation:

• Option a: A family meeting to discuss safety plans allows each member to be informed about their specific duties during an emergency, so this is a valid benefit.
• Option b: A family meeting alone doesn't directly shorten evacuation time; practice (drills) is more likely to do that.
• Option c: Safety drills are still necessary to reinforce the plan, so a meeting can't eliminate their need.
• Option d: A family meeting has no relation to reducing the need for an emergency kit, as the kit's necessity is based on emergency preparedness requirements, not discussions.

Answer:

a. It ensures everyone knows their responsibilities
