The og answer is correct, I’m just going to explain it a bit more. Since the code has been called, there are possible casualties and possible patients that will come into your care, but are not yet in your care. Your primary responsibility is to take care of the patient who is there with you. Elective surgery will be canceled and rescheduled. You should bring the patient back to their room and get them discharged as soon as possible. You will then meet with your attendings team and they will instruct you on protocol and your function until the code is called off or resolved

Answer: dependency is more likely in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled.

Explanation:

Studies have shown that in cultures where access to alcohol is carefully controlled and viewed as a sign of adulthood, dependency is more likely than in cultures where alcohol is used in religious and ceremonial activities.

This has been put down to people tending to abuse alcohol when they get access to it as opposed to cultures where it is readily available.

Answer:

He's most likely to be B, a phlebotomy technician.

Explanation:

A phlebotomist is someone who draws blood and even administers IV fluids to patients. You'll often see them work with needles and tubes. They draw blood and send it away for testing for certain illnesses.
