Section 5 - Scene Management
[5.1] - Safety
Scene safety requirements for Medical Services personnel.
Upon arriving on the scene, scan your surroundings to ensure you are safely able to secure and assess your patient. If you arrive at a scene you are unsure of, radio for PD to clear it for you. When arriving on a shooting scene, stage at least 2 blocks and 90° from the originating calls. Re-locate as needed if the scene progresses. If PD is down and there is no Code 4, please wait for the officers to use their panic button on the 10-13B, as it is the “All Clear” panic button.
