Question 8245

To assist an injured person in a traffic accident, what should you do?

  1. Call for help and give the injured person a drink to cheer them up.
  2. Call for help when needed and sit the injured person up.
  3. Call for help and monitor their breathing.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Call for help and monitor their breathing.

Call 112 as soon as possible and monitor their breathing until medical personnel arrive. Don't sit them up or raise their upper body, because moving them can make a spinal injury worse. Don't give them drinks to perk them up either, because they may vomit and suffocate.
