1.10.1  Rescue Breathing 
 
 
 
1. Find out if the person is 
breathing. 
 
You must find out if the 
person has stopped 
breathing. If you think he 
is not breathing, place him 
flat on his back. Put your 
ear close to his mouth and 
look at his chest. If he is 
breathing you can feel the 
air on your cheek. You can 
see his chest move up and 
down. If you do not feel 
the air or see the chest 
move, he is not breathing. 
 
2. If he is not 
breathing, open the 
airway by tilting his 
head backwards. 
 
Lift up his neck with 
one hand and push 
down on his forehead 
with the other. This 
opens the airway. 
Sometimes doing this 
will let the person 
breathe again by 
himself. 
3. If he is still not breathing, begin 
rescue breathing. 
 
  Keep his head tilted backward. 
Pinch nose shut. 
  Put your mouth tightly over his 
mouth. 
  Blow into his mouth once every 
five seconds 
  DO NOT STOP rescue 
breathing until help arrives. 
 
LOOSEN CLOTHING - KEEP WARM 
 
Do this when the victim is 
breathing by himself or help is 
available. Keep him as quiet as 
possible and from becoming 
chilled. Otherwise treat him for 
shock.
