This is a Test

Insufficient information. Need to know the physician's gang affiliation.

Does the patient look like a bitch?
- Unconscious and pathetic on a hospital bed? Yeah, kinda. /s
- W-w-what?

C. Since it just wants one and I would think the immediate safety of people involves moving it away and then tending to the patient.

Messing with the weapon, checking whether it’s empty, isn’t necessary and you’d still have to move it anyway

That’s not what Dr Dre would do, fool
- Shit. Looks like we forgot about him again.
- Forget about Dre. What would Cube do?
Good, you can work in the ER. Healthcare workers are not assumed to know every firearm and how to operate them, even though we are in America.
I had a girlfriend that was always studying 24/7 for her tests and never had time for me. One day she asked me to help her study and her entire exam was stuff like this, I kid you not. I realized she was too dumb for me and dumped her.
- Lmaooo what was she studying?
So... If it wanted more than one what would you select?
- B and then E just to keep everyone confused.

This is just like the dumb HR tests that are like "You see a coworker engage in inappropriate behavior. Should you A. Notify your supervisor, B. Punch them in the face, C. Piss on the floor.

At least the correct answer is obvious instead of a test with vaguely-worded trick questions and ambiguous answers. Those are the tests that make me livid.
- I know right? Clearly you piss on the floor.
- The secret is to choose the most Ned Flanders response.
I work in a place that's closed off to the public by Federal Law, where you need to badge in, just a janitor, nothing fancy, they make us watch training videos and stuff. They warn us to pay maximum attention, because we'll be barred from the site if we fail, losing our jobs in the process.
And the questions are things like
"Which of the following is safe to drink? A) Filtered Water, B) Literal Poison, C) Lava, D, A School Bus"
It's so blatantly rigged in the favor of the test taker that I suspect they literally wouldn't even have the test if it wasn't a legal requirement.
We also keep getting tested for things that don't even make sense, like recently we were meant to watch a thing on where and when it's safe to take a smoke break.... Despite the fact that tobacco and marijuana are banned form the site and will be confiscated by security if we bring any... So what exactly are they smoking
Oh right, we're meant to be smoking chocolate, forgot the Troy McClure film.
Seriously though, most of my training is entirely irrelevant as they involve scenarios I'd never be in due to the nature of my job, scenarios I'm literally not allowed to be in, or scenarios that don't even exist in the first place..
And the questions are always things like
"If your supervisor asks you to do something illegal should you..." and the answers are non-sequitur alongside the real answer, like - A) Report it to the company hotline for illegal activity 555-555-5555 B) Oppress Women & Minorities, C) Run naked into a blizzard, D) Jump off a cliff and into spikes, or E) Pray to Magi-Chan Sonichu in order to hasten the coming of the Dimensional Merge"
The most subtle examples of this are when they ask a question, and one of the answers is suspiciously and overly detailed, while the others are so overly generic that it's like they wrote the right answer for one, and then just whatever they can think of off the top of their heads.
- These are less for your education as it is for management/HR to absolve responsibility: "We trained them to not do
  <xyz>
  , it's not our fault they did it"
- fun fact but I find the opposite to be true in trivia games, if an answer is too detailed it's more likely to be false. That's how I won a trivia game about the life of some guy when I barely recognised his name
- We have such a test too, but not as extremely dumb. But it's still in the realm of: how do you wear your high-vis-vest? A: well visible from all sides B: hidden under your jacket to not get it dirty.
I snorted while eating and almost choke thanks to your comment.

Is this multiple choice or just a suggested series of steps?

Now I want to see a show where an unsuspecting anxiety ridden Nurse accidentally takes out a mob boss and has to run the gang while juggling their work, love and social life.

Unironically an unexplored Nic Cage movie genre.
You kind of just described the subplot of The Brothers Sun.

A. Looks into the barrel with a flashlight

How about treat the patient 😶

That's step F, after performing the other steps in the order of DAEBC.
- Finally, the correct answer!
Look. Doing A-E is going to be expensive enough for the young fella. I don't think he can also afford gunshot wound treatment.
In pretty much any "help anyone" kind of procedure or training step 1 is to ensure your own safety.

DAEBC easy peasy

A => D => E

Beat up the rival gang members until they are all laying on the floor in a pile => B.

I vote for E

E.

"Don't worry Mr. Patient, I'll avenge you!"

F. See if gang member has insurance to cover for his treatment

G. Charge extra for handling firearm

H. Deferred treatment

- I nominate Niel Patrick Harris for the role of "love interest"

Considering that he got shot in the arm, not the face, my real life response would probably be, "really, man? You didn't think you should give this to someone else before ems got there?" That's why I'm not a doctor. Because I'm pretty dumb and bad at hiding my reactions. Also the part with all the blood.

I don't mind the blood, but the unsaveable dying women and children plus the poop and infected smells is why I never went into medicine. Also my bedside manner is more House than Mr. Rodgers, so I would be sued so fast, like career ending speed run fast.

Lots of ways to help people. Sometimes heal patients; sometimes execute dangerous people. Either way helps.

B.
Specifically at an oblique angle for maximum ricochet.

What's actually the answer though? I would think A, D, C in that order is probably best, but I'm guessing they just want C?

The most lawyer friendly answer is probably C.
I am not a doctor, but I do know how to handle firearms, so I would also unload and ensure that the gun is not in a condition to fire. This would probably dock me points for diluting potential evidence or some such horseshit, but it'd still be the right thing to do. Provided you knew what you were doing.
- Doing anything to the gun is probably a bad idea, even if you have experience with firearms. This gun came from a gang member, it could be in a very janky altered condition that makes it act unpredictably. If you're going to try to disarm it anyway then you should still move it outside first before attempting that just in case it malfunctions and fires while you're trying to manipulate it
- Hospitals have security for a reason. You touching a gun when they have procedures on how to handle this situation is dangerous. If you are on staff you follow procedures. If you are just there and do know about gun safety you would know not to pick up that gun.
It's not difficult.
A is wrong because whoever wrote this is in no position to evaluate if the person reading it is capable of "to check if the gun is loaded" without blowing their own head off.
D is wrong because the person whoever wrote this is in no position to evaluate if the person reading it is capable of "hold the gun personally" without blowing their own head off.
C is the only correct answer.
- E is answer cause bitches be whack
- A is additionally wrong because you don't know the condition of the firearm. If it is not mechanically sound, manipulating it in any way could cause it to discharge in the worst case, or possibly jamming it in an unsafe condition. Best to let someone get it to a safer location before trying anything. There's likely no especially safe direction to allow a firearm to discharge in a hospital, much less the ED.
- I agree that's what they want you to answer, but you can't move it to a safe location without handling it, so C necessarily entails D. Unless there's a designated firearm handler in the ER you can call over, which to be fair, maybe there should be.
B is the correct answer.

Everyone here just straight up ignoring the fact that option B is completely correct.

It's a trick question, you fire the bullets into the patient to increase revenue
100%. Need to get the bullets out the gun
- Eject the magazine and then pull back the slide to eject anything in the chamber.
It's a free gun without a paper trail, why would you not tuck that shit. You do homie a favor and you get a nice drop piece to fold some clothes later.

You've never done a desk pop?

B, but you actually use it to get attention and yell to everyone to "calm the fuck down and be cool." Then safely and discretely dispose of the evidence to get in good with your local gang.

"Be cool honey bunny."

C. I worked at a hospital and at the hospital I worked at they would have called Security to secure the gun. There may even be an off duty police officer on staff at the time of the incident.

A then C. If you know how to do it[^1] ofc. If you don't, then assume it is. Very different situation if the weapon is loaded. Both require C, but one much more intensely than the other.
[^1]: Hopefully /s is obvious enough here, but I'm not taking chances: /s, OK?

retribution

Isn't it blatantly C?

Nah bro it's clearly option F which isn't shown but includes all the answers except C shaking my smh
No, it's E or B if there are no other gangs left.

On the one hand, c seems logical. But on the other hand, e is tempting...

I hate being a snitch but they are called throwaways for a reason, homie! Don't bring your problems up in the ED.

I was expecting one of the answers to be blatantly racist. It's like this test doesn't even want to prepare students for real life.

If Grey's Anatomy has taught anything its D, but then B.

If House has taught me anything, it's D, but then E.
- In grey's, E is the side plot lol

Depends. If the patient lives, it's D. If he dies, you need to revenge him, so E

Exactly. No one wants a doctor who won't fight for their patients
But as a student, you should have humility and assume you're going to fuck up and kill your patient, that's the trap
E. Final answer

E followed by B obviously

B

Desk pop.
