In the golf course incident, how many ambulances responded to the scene?

• A. 2
• B. 3
• C. 4
• D. 5

Answer: (B)

Three ambulances were dispatched to balance on-scene care, transport, and standby support for the golf course incident. With remote access and the need to begin stabilizing the patient promptly, one unit can focus on immediate assessment and treatment, a second can handle patient transport, and a third provides backup for additional equipment, lifts, or to stage nearby in case conditions change. This arrangement keeps scenes running smoothly without overcommitting resources. Fewer units could compromise on-scene stabilization or timely transport, while more units would exceed what’s needed for a typical single-patient scenario unless there are multiple patients or special hazards.
