You are dispatched to a local industrial plant for an "electrical injury." You arrive on-scene and find a 46-year-old male lying supine in front of an electrical panel. You are told he was attempting to make a repair and somehow received an electrical shock and was thrown to the ground. The scene is safe and the electricity is off. Your initial exam reveals a conscious person, breathing adequately. Vital signs are normal and there are no obvious signs of burns. Coworkers state that he was unconscious until your arrival. What is the next step?
A) While on the scene, rapidly do a complete assessment, provide oxygen, provide care for potential spine injuries, and transport as soon as possible after the exam.
B) Load and go–conduct any other care in the ambulance en route due to the potential seriousness of the burns.
C) Put the patient on oxygen and help him into your ambulance.
D) Stay with the patient awhile, and if he does not appear to be in distress, encourage him to refuse care.
