Question

question 4 of 4
a visitor comes into your department at the cha cambridge hospital to let you know that a woman is outside on the sidewalk assisting another person who appears to be having a hard time breathing. the first thing you should do is:
tell her thank you and keep working on your computer
call x7999 immediately (hospital locations)
dial 9 - 911 and provide as much detail as you can about the location of the person who needs help (non - hospital locations)
walk away and pretend you didnt see anything.

Explanation:

In a hospital setting, when someone is having breathing difficulties (a medical emergency), the appropriate first action is to call the hospital's emergency response number (x7999 as per the option) to get immediate medical help. Telling thanks and working, walking away, or using 9 - 911 (which is for non - hospital or broader emergency but in - hospital emergency should use the hospital's internal emergency line) are not correct. The option "Call x7999 immediately (hospital locations)" is the right choice as it is the standard protocol to call the hospital's emergency number for in - hospital or hospital - related emergencies to get prompt medical assistance.

Answer:

Call x7999 immediately (hospital locations)
