73. Giving First Aid CheckCallCare

74. Life Threatening Emergencies A victim’s life is in danger if the person: has stopped breathing has no heartbeat is bleeding severely is choking has swallowed poison has been severely burned

75. Rescue Breathing and CPR If the victim is not breathing, perform rescue breathing. rescue breathing A substitute for normal breathing in which someone forces air into the victims lungs
