∙ 11y agoYou check for a pulse by feeling the carotid artery on either side of the neck (check the side closest to you) and you check for breathing by observing the mouth and the movement of the chest.

If CPR is being done incorrectly, ask the person if you can take over CPR. If you are in a setting where you have a duty to respond or take action (as a professional rescuer), you are the more advanced person so you should assess the situation and determine what needs to be done next. Is the person doing CPR correctly? Is the scene safe? Do you need to call your headquarters? Are there any other victims? Follow your protocols.
