After all lifesaving issues have been completed, but before driving to the hospital with patients on board the ambulance, what should you ensure?
  1. The tires are properly inflated
  2. There is plenty of gas for the trip
  3. That the patient is secured to a cot
  4. That the windshield wipers are working properly
Explanation
Answer: C - After all lifesaving issues have been completed but before driving to the hospital with patients on board the ambulance, it is necessary to ensure that patients are secured to a cot. However, many of the transport devices today only have three straps to secure the patient to the device. If patients are on backboards, they must also be secured to the cot.
