What is the first priority when arriving at the scene of an emergency?

  1. Ensuring the safety of yourself and your team

  2. Identifying potential hazards for the patient

  3. Providing immediate patient care

  4. Summoning additional resources

The correct answer is: Ensuring the safety of yourself and your team

When arriving at the scene of an emergency, the first priority is to ensure the safety of yourself and your team. This is because you cannot effectively help anyone if you or your team members are injured or in danger. Once you have confirmed that the scene is safe, then you can proceed with providing care to the patient. Identifying hazards for the patient and summoning additional resources are important steps as well, but they come after ensuring the safety of yourself and your team.
