Correct answer
Promptly and calmly, protecting the scene and calling 112.
Act promptly and calmly, without rushing or creating another hazard. Follow PAS: protect the scene, call 112 and assist following the instructions received. Provide the location and what you observe about casualties. Calmness helps decisions and communication; it is not itself incorrect. Remaining calm does not mean withholding help or waiting without calling.
