If a person is profusely bleeding, what should the guard do?

In the context of addressing profuse bleeding, applying pressure to the wound is a critical first response. This technique is essential for controlling bleeding by helping to form a clot and reduce blood loss. The application of direct pressure directly on the wound can significantly slow or stop the flow of blood, which is crucial in emergency situations.

While it is also important to call for emergency services, as they can provide advanced medical care, the immediate action should focus on stemming the bleeding. Evacuating the area may not be necessary unless there is an ongoing threat to safety, and using a tourniquet is typically reserved for severe cases of limb bleeding and should only be applied when direct pressure fails. In situations involving profuse bleeding, prioritizing direct pressure helps ensure the individual receives immediate and effective care until professional help arrives.
