Which term is a component of the Disturbance Resolution Model?

• A. Crisis Negotiation
• B. Incident Command
• C. Approach Considerations
• D. Documentation

Answer: (C)

The main idea being tested is recognizing which element belongs to the planning and approach phase of resolving a disturbance. Approach Considerations focus on how responders will approach the scene: where to position themselves, how to communicate, timing, and safety factors taken into account before and during action. This planning element shapes a controlled, safe entry and sets the sequence for stabilization, which is why it fits as a component of the Disturbance Resolution Model.

Crisis Negotiation is a specialized tactic used in specific situations, such as hostages or barricades, rather than a general planning component of resolving disturbances. Incident Command provides the overall organizational structure for coordinating resources during an incident, not the specific step of planning the approach. Documentation is about recording actions and outcomes, typically part of after-action review, not the live approach planning itself.
