Questionnaire for Health Care Facilities
Administrator's Guide
To assess the readiness of hospitals and other health care facilities for
chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) events,
States, localities, and hospitals can use this functionally downloadable

local health department or multi-hospital health care system who will be
responsible for administering the questionnaire and analyzing the resulting
data.
