Sorry, I didn't clarify. I meant the patient killed one of your family members. But in general, if the patient did something as traumatic as this, would the EMT-B be allowed to transfer care to another EMT?
I am an EMT-B and was wondering the other day about a possible situation. What if on the job I have to help someone who killed a family member? Would I still be obligated to treat that person? Could I hand them off to another EMT to avoid abandonment issues?
