Search Results: building muscle

Okay so today (about 4pm my time) I went out to water my plants and I saw a guy sleeping on concrete steps out my apartment. I live in a college town and this guy was a younger guy, probably in college. I've sat on those steps before but was really confused on why he was sleeping on them (never seen him before). I was torn between letting him sleep and seeing if he was okay. I texted my mom and she told me to go check on him. I went outside and tried to wake him up, and he didn't wake up. He still had muscle control but it looked like he was sleeping. I'm a CNA but was still confused on what to do so I facebook messaged a nurse I know and she told to call for help because he could have been a diabetic and been in an emergency. I called the police, they sent help, and while trying to talk to him it was clear something was up; he seemed awake but not "with it" he didn't really open his eyes or talk but nodded his head and smiled. After awhile they got him to stand up and found out that he was drunk and lived in a building over.

I didn't care he was there, I just wanted to make sure he was okay. I told my friend what happened and he told me NEVER to try to wake someone up, just call the cops. Now I was a lifeguard, building supervise (first aid/cpr certified), and am now a nurses aid so I don't understand why you wouldn't try helping someone who was randomly passed out. I probably would have called the cops if they guy looked less clean cut or dangerous, but I didn't see this guy as a threat.

So if you saw someone passed out would you help, or just call the cops straight away? Also, were taught one way or another? (please specify where you live if that matters and what type of people you would/would not help.)

*for the poll imagine you saw a younger guy/girl, possibly in college*
