Question

responding to an injury
in science class, two lab partners are working with a beaker that contains extremely hot liquid. the liquid gets too hot, and it boils over and explodes. the liquid sprays and burns the arm of one of the students. his lab partner reports this to the teacher. the teacher then applies first aid to the burn.
the teacher uses this accident as a way to talk to students about responding to injuries. what does she suggest to the students about how to first respond to an injury?
administer cpr and then reach out for help
rely on your lab partner for more aid
check to see if the person is responsive
call 911 when you encounter any emergency

Explanation:

When responding to an injury, the first step is to check the person's responsiveness. CPR is for cardiac - related emergencies, not just burns. Relying solely on a lab partner may not be sufficient. Calling 911 is important but not the first step in all cases (e.g., minor burns may not immediately require 911). Checking responsiveness helps determine the severity of the situation and what further actions are needed.

Answer:

check to see if the person is responsive
