9. The first important steps in giving CPR are…. The three C’s!!

10. Is the scene safe? Check to make sure that the scene is safe!!! Fire, wires, gas, glass, spills, traffic, falling objects etc. Make sure you are also taking care of yourself! Assess what might have happened Is there anyone around who can also help? Ask others around the scene for as much help as they can offer!

11. Calling for help is often the most important action you can take to help an ill or injured person. Call 911 or the local emergency number (If there are other people at the scene, ask someone else to call for you to help!) If you’re by yourself, call 911 and/or get AED before you start CPR Give the 911 operator the correct information about your location, victim, what happened and any other information you can. Be the last to hang up!

12. Once you have followed the first two C’s, you may need to give care until EMS personnel arrive. Follow these guidelines: Do no further harm. Monitor the person’s breathing and conciousness. Help the person rest in the most comfortable position. Keep the person from getting chilled or overheated. Reassure the person. Give any specific care needed.
