Which of the following is NOT a Rehab component?

Rehab focuses on stabilizing the responder and preparing them to safely return to duty through rest, rehydration, and medical monitoring. Rest gives the body time to recover from exertion, lowering heart rate and reducing the risk of heat illness. Hydration replenishes fluids and electrolytes lost to sweating, supporting circulation and body temperature control. Monitoring and basic medical care (BLS) involve checking vitals, watching for warning signs of heat illness or other issues, and providing ongoing assessment to decide if the person can continue or needs further care. Nutrition, while important for overall recovery and energy, is not a standard rehab component in these protocols. The rehab station emphasizes rest, fluids, and medical monitoring as the core elements to safely restore readiness.
