A lot of factors surround the scene of a crash…some are even beyond our standard “BSI and scene safety” considerations. This course takes a look at scene size-up, vehicle stabilization, and other safety factors surrounding motor vehicle accidents.
Too often we take for granted the basics of scene size up and our own safety.
This event will:
Discuss MVA size-up principles related to on-scene operations, patient safety, apparatus positioning, and the need for additional resources.
Review various vehicle stability, assessment, and hazard considerations related to MVA incidents.
Correlate various case scenarios to concepts of vehicle safety, scene safety, patient assessment, and resource management on an MVA scene.
