This was a scenario that was posed in my EMT-B Class. I'll give you the beginning information as it was given to me and my 2 partners. I was running charge EMT as you will be. I want to see, whether anyone does the same thing I did or if my instructor was right in saying my actions were poor. Most of the students in my class agreed with him, a few agreed with me.
What would you do?
You are called from quarters from a Sexual Assault. PD is already on scene, your response time is 3 minutes. It is about 1AM on a friday night. You arrive outside a nightclub where 3 cruisers and 5 officers are on scene. An officer motions you over. He tell you that the victim is not talking but from what they gather she was raped in the alley way behind the club. They point to the cruiser in which the victim is sitting. You walk past the assailant who is laying on his side and cuffed. You are in charge, your partner is also an EMT-B and lucky your driver is also an EMT-B.
Unsure of what difference this makes, but we were doing this in Ohio so you can use CPAP, intubate, and run a 12-lead EKG should you need it.
All right, you're on scene, take over from here!
