Step 1 of CDM?

Explanation:
Collect information is the first step because you need a clear, factual view of the scene before you can evaluate hazards and decide on actions. Gathering information establishes the situational picture—what’s happening, where you are, who’s involved, what injuries or threats exist, what resources are available, and what hazards could affect safety. With this baseline, you can properly assess the situation, threats, and risks, then determine the best course of action and proceed to act, review, and re-assess as conditions change. In practice, this means quickly surveying the scene, asking key questions, and noting critical data to guide safe, effective decision-making.
