The cause of a possible death or injury (natural or unnatural) and the circumstances surrounding the incident (violent or not) will affect your behavior during the event and during post-trauma responses.
If the death or injury is the result of aggressive behavior by a student or intruder, protection of students and staff members becomes a key issue in how the event is handled.
Never assume someone is dead until certified by appropriate medical personnel. Provide all possible medical support until that time. |
