Ask basic questions to gather as much information as it can be.

Explanation:

General questions like: At which time does the accident occur?

How was the accident?

If the client can identify the chemical that injured him/her.

If the client can calculate the quantity of chemical that was spilled in eyes.

After these questions, the doctor need to check the security sheet of the chemical to identify if the saline solution is the better one or which other solution is needed to treat the injury.
