What is not the priority of an emt at the scene of a hazardous materials incident?

Protecting people and property while minimising any adverse effects on the environment are the responsibilities of trained awareness level responders who are "first on the scene" during the occurrence of hazardous material. Emergency medical service (EMS) protocols are the accepted operating procedures that paramedics and emergency medical technicians (EMTs) must adhere to when assessing, treating, transporting, and delivering patients to definitive care.

There are certain role of responders that needed to be taken care of during such incidents.

Responders should avoid driving or walking through any spilled or released substances, including smoke, fumes, and puddles
Prevent unneeded equipment infection
Avoid being seen when you approach a scene
Avoid interacting with people leaving hazardous locations
Rescue attempts should not be made unless you are trained and have the necessary PPE
Report to the command post any suspicious people, shipments, or containers
