Do not risk injury to yourself or any bystanders, as the situation will worsen. Control the loose horse if possible, and station someone to stop any traffic a safe distance from the accident site. One person should take charge and delegate tasks to others. Never attempt to move an injured person unless his location is life-threatening.

Assess the Situation

Is the casualty conscious? If so, ask about his injuries. Try to discourage him from getting up too quickly. If there are any suspected fractures, or neck or back pain, call an ambulance.
