D. Assess the victim.

Answer 1

Terminate care before help arrives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emergency medical services may be defined as the services that provide the medical help to the people in case of sudden emergency, accident and poor health condition.

The attendant must provide the first aid and medicine to the required patient. The bystanders should call the medical services and must assess the victim. The bystanders should not stop their help before any medical attendant arrives at the emergency place.

Thus, the answer is option (C).

Answer 2

The correct answer is- C. Terminate care before help arrives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bystanders are the people that are present at the site of the accident or the place where any incident takes place. Bystanders can be crucial in helping those people who are in trouble especially in case of accidents.

They can help the victim by calling an ambulance, regulating traffic, giving first aid to the victim, assessing the victim, giving moral support to the victim, etc. It is compulsory to provide help to the victim until the ambulance or medical personnel reaches to the victim.

Terminating care before help arrives will not be beneficial to the victim and can lead to more problems for the victim. Therefore the correct answer is C.
