As you are assessing a 32-year-old asthmatic woman who has called EMS due to difficulty breathing, her husband enters the home through a back door and shouts, "Get your hands off her; she doesn't need your help. She needs to be taught a lesson about her smart mouth." Which of the following is the BEST course of action?
A) Attempt to remove the patient from the home and continue treatment en route to the hospital.
B) Leave the scene and patient, then notify police.
C) Continue assessment and respond that the patient is sick and needs medical attention.
D) Let the husband know that his behavior is inappropriate, and if it continues you will call for the police.
