The reason that a first aider uses gloves when touching a victim is because any bodily fluids that come in contact with the first aider may harm them if the first aider has any open cuts or wounds. It is for the protection and safety of the first aider.
There are several reason as to why a first aider will not help a victim. Some of those reasons include:The scene is not safe;The victim requires advance medical attention that the first aider is not trained on;The first aider will look to see if anyone is around to ask them what has happened.
