B
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
Federal and accreditor requirements establish two emergency exercises per year for hospitals: one full-scale community-based (or facility-based if community-based is not available) and a second exercise (which may be a second full-scale or an exercise such as a tabletop). Real events may be used to meet one of the required exercises when criteria are met.
