Question 1666 Deck Safety

The correct answer is D) not be moved but made comfortable until medical assistance arrives. This is the correct answer because the primary concern with a person suffering from possible broken bones and internal injuries is to avoid further injury or complications by moving the person. The best practice is to keep the person still and comfortable until professional medical assistance can arrive and properly assess and treat the injuries. Moving the person could potentially worsen the injuries, so they should not be encouraged to walk or be moved to a chair or bunk. The person should be made as comfortable as possible by loosening any tight clothing, covering them with a blanket, and providing reassurance until emergency responders can take over. The other options are incorrect because they involve unnecessary movement or relocation of the injured person, which could exacerbate their condition.
