a. When faced with the necessity of rescuing a casualty
who is threatened by hostile action, fire, water, or any other
immediate hazard, DO NOT take action without first determining the
extent of the hazard and your ability to handle the situation. DO NOT
become a casualty.
b. The rescuer must evaluate the situation and analyze
the factors involved. This evaluation involves three major steps:
- Identify the task.
- Evaluate circumstances of the rescue.
- Plan the action.
