Last week your neighbors told you that their 18 month old son has been sleeping through the night for the past 2 months. they were happy about this development and were looking forward to many more months of a good night's sleep. this week, however, they say their son has been waking up at night and has been pretty fussy during the day. what is the likely reason for this waking up and fussing?

At 2: 00 am, a 17-year-old boy, accompanied by his 19-year-old girlfriend, had driven to the bar to give his father (who had been drinking large amounts of alcohol) a ride home. on the way back, they were involved in a motor vehicle collision. the boy has a large laceration with profuse bleeding on his forehead. his girlfriend is unconscious in the front passenger floor. the father is standing outside the vehicle, appearing heavily intoxicated, and is refusing care. what is the best way to gain consent to begin care when his father has an altered mental status or is unconscious? a. phone his mother for consent. b. call his grandparents for consent. c. it is a true emergency, so consent is implied. d. you are covered under the good samaritan laws.
