Responding to First Aid Calls Safely Recognize that for any Code 2 or 3, the patroller does NOT have to ski as fast as they can to get to the patient. You are no help to the patient if you get injured and can’t do your job. You also become a hazard to other skiers if you are skiing recklessly. Do not rush to the scene of an incident. You become a liability if you do so. Do not ski out of control. Do not travel on runs beyond your ability. Do not take action beyond your training or authority.
