Here is the situation:
You are in a public setting, lets say near a park. You notice a child crying. Your not sure of the age but you are certain they are in single digit ages. You notice the child is bleeding. The child says they are unable to locate their parents. There are other adults around, however none seem to be reacting to the bleeding. Others notice the bleeding, but have noticed as you have that the source of the wound is in the pelvic area. The other adults present seem to be avoiding the fact of the source of the blood. While not certified, you do understand principals of first aid. Now, what do you do...:
Treat the wound and worry about any misconceptions later.
Put a sense of urgency in locating the child's parents
Call 911 and hope for a quick response time
Again, parents if this is your child, what would you want the person to do?
