Question 3790

Who must perform basic life support measures on the victims of an accident?

  1. Specialized personnel, unless the person helping the victim is completely sure they know them and can perform them.
  2. Specialized personnel, always.
  3. These measures must always be performed in a hospital.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Specialized personnel, unless the person helping the victim is completely sure they know them and can perform them.

Basic life support, such as resuscitation, is the responsibility of specially trained personnel. Still, you can do it yourself if you are completely sure you know the technique and can apply it. If you don't know how, call 112 and follow the operator's instructions.
