What item will serve as “back-up” if on-line medical directions are not available?
  1. Nearest doctor
  2. Protocols
  3. Standing orders
  4. Protocols and standing orders
Explanation
Answer - D - Protocols and standing orders serve as “back-up” if on-line medical directions are not available. Dispatch is not medically inclined, so they will not be able to help. Protocols and standing orders must be used if on-line medical directions are not available for some reason or another. Do not wait for another team of healthcare providers. This would delay proper treatment.
