Candidate brief
You have eight minutes to lead a safe plan with the local team and family. Stabilise priorities, escalate early, explain the stay-versus-go decision, and address cultural and transport realities. [1][2]
Key teaching and communication objectives
Open with calm leadership and ABCDE priorities. Make an early call for help explicit. Explain resource limits honestly without alarming unnecessarily. Invite family questions and cultural supports. Close with a written plan, thresholds and follow-up. [1]
Name what will be done now, what cannot be done locally, and how transfer or observation will keep the child safe. Avoid blame for geography. Confirm understanding with closed-loop communication. [1][2]
