Correct answer: B — Command and safety first, then communication, assessment, triage, treatment and transport

CSCATTT emphasises command and safety before the clinical flow of assessment, triage, treatment and transport. Without command and safety, responders can become casualties and resources are misallocated. The sequence is a framework rather than a substitute for dynamic judgement.
