BDifficulty 1/5

As a layperson assisting a casualty after a collision, should you give medication on your own initiative?

Correct answer

No.

No. Do not administer medication on your own initiative or merely because the casualty asks for it. Make the scene safe without exposing yourself, call 112 and follow professional instructions; reassure the casualty and monitor their condition until help arrives. Specific medical treatment and instructions belong to competent professionals.
