The first thing to remember is that you are giving first aid. You are not there to carry out medical procedures that a trained doctor is able to do. Ensure the air ways are clear, remove dentures if present. If a spinal or neck injury is suspected, keep the patient immobile. Stem any bleeding. Ensure an ambulance has been called. Keep the patient talking and not going into shock. If you need to, place the patient into the recovery position, and keep a close eye on the patient's condition.

* Check isolation gear -- mask and gloves. * Is the airway remaining clear? * Is there extreme bleeding? A good heartbeat is only as good as volume. * Is there a pulse (so you can stop compressions)? * Is the victim breathing on their own (so you can stop resuscitation)? * Is the patient cyanotic? Are they oxygenating well? * Is the chest rising when you breathe them? So you know the air is going into the lungs and not the stomach. Before CPR make sure there's someone making a 911 call. I like to get two people doing that at least.

Remember when performing chest compressions (Adult) to: 1) Place your hands in the middle of the chest, on the sternum; 2) compress 1 1/2 to 2 inches; 3) Use both hands to compress the chest; 4) compress the chest 30 times and give 2 breaths; and 5) count out loud to retain rhythm.
