2025/2026
✔✔Scene Safety - ✔✔Assessment of scene (surroundings) that will provide information
to the first responder and will help ensure their well-being
✔✔Scope of Practice - ✔✔The legal duties to the patient, medical director, and public
✔✔Standard of Care - ✔✔care expected based on training and experience taking into
account the conditions under which the care is rendered
✔✔Competence - ✔✔The ability to understand questions and to the implication of

( do you know who / where / what you are? )
✔✔Expressed Consent - ✔✔The patient must be told in an easy to understand nature
and the extent of the procedure to be preformed as well as the possible risks involved
✔✔Implied Consent - ✔✔Consent based on the assumption that the unresponsive
patient would consent to life saving interventions
✔✔Advanced Directives - ✔✔Written documentation that specifies what medical
treatment a patient wishes to have and what to withhold should the patient become
unable to make a decision
✔✔Assault and Battery - ✔✔Unlawfully touching a patient without consent providing
emergency medical care when a competent patient does not consent to the emergency
