Another scenario- You get attacked by a hord of wasps while conducting a felony stop

I would jump in my car to protect myself then put a warant on the car if it drove away.

Graal bot where did you think of that lol!

 

You're an ECP (Basically, a nurse who provides hospital care at the home) going to check on a old lady. However, you get there only to realize she's been dead for god knows how long and she is clearly visible in her dining room slumped over her Pot Noodle. You're about to call for police assistance when a mother comes running out of the house screaming 'Holy **** there is a dog in my house attacking my husband' You can hear the dog tearing into the man. You're also male, and this man will probably die in a few minutes without medical aid and someone neutralizing the dog.

 

whaddya do

I would shout "SIT!" at the dog or some other thing like that and hopefully the dog would go away and then I would drag the guy outside (the dog is inside locked up) ask for an ambulance and give him some treatment.

Scene isn't safe so I'm not going anywhere near the house with the dog. Can't help anyone if you get injured yourself. Call police and advise of both situations. You sorta make it sound like this is all happening in the same house; if that's the case, then yeah not going anywhere near the house. If these are two different houses, then I'll go to the residence of my patient and look for any signs of obvious death (Any mortises) , then do whatever needs to be done there depending on signs of death.

Your wrestling someone twice your size on the ground and he's resisting arrest. Some man with a baseball bat comes and offers help. You tell him to stay back. He starts beating the man your trying to arrest with the bat. Whatyoudo?

[Newfoundking]

You go after the guy with the baseball bat. Disarm him, and detain him, then proceed to go after the original perp. As the original fellow was being beaten, the secondary is now the target.

[Ace]

As soon as the original man notices you going after the secondary, he gets up and starts running away

Arrest the Secondary, ask a member of the public to stay with them and then go arrest the original.

And call for backup when the secondary comes along.

Your driving a firetruck code to a structure fire when a boy chasing a cat jumps in front of you and the truck hits him.

[Fred03]

Stop truck, start medical treatment, advise dispatch of status and request a ambulance and other units to handle the fire. Do what you can for the child (depending on skill level) until the ambulance arrives. Once the ambulance arrives you may have to stay on scene to give a statement or be questioned, if not continue on to the fire.

(Countryside EMS)

Your transporting a patient having a stroke to the hospital. You witness a car run a red light hitting 4 motorists on your way. The people flag you down.

[999madtom]

Stop, call it into dispatch and tell the partner to look after the stroke victim. Mabey call Helimed/Air ambulance/Medivac for the stroke victim.

[LAD23DER]

Stop, tell the people you can't stop, but you have people on the way, and tell dispatch, give witnesses a couple first aid kits, then continue on the the hospital.
