7. WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY?

The associated drawings are shown on the fold-out page.
Check for consciousness and breathing
A
Check if the person that has collapsed is responsive. To do this, shake them lightly by their shoul-
ders and ask loudly: "Is everything OK?" If they respond, try to find out what the problem is with
them and get help if necessary. Regularly check their condition.
If they do not respond, check their breathing using sight, hearing and touch. To do this, turn the
patient onto their back. Place your hand on their forehead and gently tilt their head backwards
using your other hand's fingertips in order to clear the airways. If you are unsure whether breath-
ing is normal, work on the basis that it is not normal and start resuscitation.
Make an emergency call
B
If the patient is not responsive and is not breathing normally, immediately alert the emergency
services (the number for Europe, for example, is 112).
Expose the upper body
