Who do you administer third aid to after crew members and ABPs, if it is safe to do so?

• A. Passengers
• B. Crew members
• C. ABPs
• D. Attackers

Answer: (D)

Triage and safety determine who gets medical help on board. Once you’ve secured the situation and attended to those who are essential to maintaining control and safety—crew members and ABPs—the next step is to provide aid to anyone who still needs it, as long as it’s safe. If an attacker is injured and giving aid won’t put others at risk, it’s appropriate to treat them. The aim is to preserve life and reduce further harm, even for someone who caused the disruption, once safety allows. After immediate injuries are stabilized, attention can then extend to other passengers as needed.
