* Assess the danger to the casualty and yourself. * Shout and shake to assess the casualty is unconscious. If yes, shout for help/call 911/999. * Open the airway using a head tilt/chin lift maneuver. * Bring your cheek to the casualty's mouth and watch for the chest to rise and fall with breathing and feeling the breath on your check. If breaths are felt, place casualty in the recovery position and await medical support. * If not, give 30 compressions in the midline between the nipples, using the heel of one hand with the fingers raised off the chest, and the other hand interlocking the fingers on top, at a rough rate of 100 compressions a minute. A good way to remember this is "Nelly the Elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus". If said correctly, every syllable should give a compression. Press down deeply, aim for 5-6 inches of compression. * Every 30 compressions, reopen the airway using the head tilt/chin lift, pinch the nose and give a breath until the chest expands fully. Remove mouth and let the chest deflate. Repeat once more.
* Continue with compressions and rescue breaths to a ratio of 30:2 (current British Resuscitation Council Guidelines) compressions to breaths until you are exhausted or until medical help arrives.
