HEMS Scenes safety

Curiosity in procedures for those that do EMS.

What "tail rotor guard" procedures (if any) do you have in place if the patient is to be loading while engines running. Do you place a guard at the aft of the aircraft 50 feet or at the 10/2 o'clock outside the rotor disk visible to the pilot?

From what position do you teach people (fireman, ambulance staff) to approach the helicopter from: straight of the nose or 3/9 o'clock (considering any slopes)
