Hi! I am an EMT-B student and I am collecting information for a class project on providing emergency care for patients who practice non judeo-christian religions. I am hoping there are members of this forum who have experience and/or information related to providing care for Sikh patients. I know that Sikh's generally do not cut the hair on their head, face or body. Implied consent would allow a rescuer to shave the chest of a Sikh male who is unresponsive in the event that an AED or monitor is needed. Under informed consent is refusal common? Any other info or experiences that anyone would like to share would be greatly appreciated!
