In the Check, Call, Care sequence, which action comes last?

• A. Check the scene and victims
• B. Call emergency services
• C. Care for the injured
• D. Move the injured to safety

Answer: (C)

The sequence starts with making the scene safe and checking the people, then calling for help, and only then providing care to the injured. The last step is care because you need to ensure it’s safe to approach and that professional help is on the way before you start delivering first-aid. Checking the scene and the victims helps you identify what happened and what needs attention without causing more harm. Calling emergency services gets trained responders and the right equipment en route. Once you’ve assessed safety and alerted help, you can apply the appropriate care, such as monitoring breathing, controlling bleeding, or supporting the injured. Moving someone to safety isn’t the routine final step; it’s only done if there’s immediate danger, not as part of the standard last step in this sequence.
