A 30-year-old woman crashed her car into a tree at a high rate of speed. She is conscious and alert and has stable vital signs. She has some
small lacerations and abrasions to her arms and face, but no obviously life-threatening injuries. As you are loading her into the ambulance,
she tells you that she does not want to go to the hospital. You should:
A) advise her that she is probably too emotionally upset to be able to refuse EMS treatment and transport.
B) ask a law enforcement officer to administer a breathalyzer test to determine if she has been drinking alcohol.
C) advise the patient that she should be transported to the hospital because of the seriousness of the crash.
D) obtain a signed refusal from the patient and ask a law enforcement officer to transport her to the hospital.
