  12. R= Response • You need to assess if the person is conscious or unconscious. • Walk up to the person with caution. • Ask: COWS: Can you hear me? Open your eyes? What is your name? Squeeze my hands? • Remember that when we get them to squeeze our hands we need to both hands at the same time as they may have had a stroke. • If the patient responds: Monitor them, ask them questions and notify their next of kin or ambulance depending on condition. • If their is no response the patient is unconscious and we move to our next stage.

  17. B = Breathing • How can we tell if the casualty is breathing? • Kneel down and put your face near the casualties mouth. LOOK for the rise and fall of their chest. LISTEN for their breath on your ear, and FEEL for the rise and fall of their chest. • If the casualty is breathing roll them over to the recovery position and continue to monitor their breathing. • No sign of breathing? Start compressions! • Head tilt and pinching the casualties nose is important so that the air goes into the lungs. • Pistol grip.
