Q #437 - You arrive at an incident. A pedestrian is bleeding heavily from a leg wound. The leg isn't broken and there's nothing in the wound. What should you do?
If there's nothing in the wound, applying a pad of clean cloth or bandage will help stem the bleeding. Raising the leg will also lessen the flow of blood. Don't tie anything tightly round the leg, as this will restrict circulation and could result in long-term injury.
Dab the wound to stop bleeding
Keep both legs flat on the ground
Fetch them a warm drink
Raise the leg to lessen bleeding
