Breathing & Circulation Emergencies

In an emergency, call 911 first (or your local emergency number). If someone is unresponsive and not breathing normally, start CPR and send for an AED. Do not delay a call to read a guide.

The minutes that matter most: CPR for adults, children and babies, using an AED, choking at every age, drowning, and the recovery position — the skills that keep oxygen moving until the ambulance arrives.

10 guides in this section. Select one for numbered first-aid steps, what not to do, and when to get medical care. Every guide prints as a clean one-topic sheet.
