Sep 5, 2014 I wonder what business is it of the hospital's how many people you can rely on in an emergency? I've seen this question on applications before and didn't appreciate it much.

What if your brother is the most reliable person in the world but happens to be in another country during the emergency? What if your mother has always been your partner in crime, but she's on bedrest during the emergency? You get the picture.

Lev, MSN, RN, NP 8 Articles; 2,803 Posts Specializes in Family Nurse Practitioner. Has 10 years experience. Sep 5, 2014 Thanks Cricket and Jbudd, this really helped. Now I'm between the third and fourth option. I see how zero doesn't make sense. I can see how 11+ doesn't make sense.
