Question

10 multiple choice 0 points. you are out in public and you see an old lady fall over and break her leg. you ask her if you can help her. she says “no, i do not want help.” what should you do? do not treat her directly, but call 911 to report an emergency walk away and do not help her help her anyway. she is clearly hurt and she will thank you later splint her leg and call 911 to report an emergency

Explanation:

In such a situation, respecting the individual's autonomy while ensuring safety is key. Directly treating her against her will may be unethical. Walking away completely is callous. Helping against her will can also be seen as a violation. Splinting against her will is inappropriate too. Calling 911 to report the emergency while not directly treating her respects her refusal of help while still getting professional aid on the way.

Answer:

A. Do not treat her directly, but call 911 to report an emergency
