A family member is the first on the scene in most emergency situations. In fact many children are alive today because their parents knew how to perform CPR and responded quickly. For this reason alone, Royal Life Saving encourages everyone to learn CPR.
Having the skills to respond in an emergency situation can mean the difference between life and death.
Resuscitation or Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) involves stimulating the heart and breathing air into the lungs to preserve or restore life. Resuscitation involves establishing or maintaining an airway, breathing and circulation.
Royal Life Saving has a number of CPR related resources and courses available including a CPR chart that can be used near your backyard swimming pool and CPR courses that are run in a variety of locations across all States and Territories.

Isn't it meant to be 2:15? with breaths first, as infants are much more likely to become unresponsive due to respiratory arrest as opposed to cardiac arrest.

[@salmamkindu868]

Would I be this calm

[@HugeStirz]

Should be 5 breaths not 2

[@roseadams4588]

Not in Australia. It's only two cheek puffs. Where are you that it's 5 breaths?

[@tdkage]

5 breaths at start. Then 30:2

@Gaming XP20 At the Red Cross course I recently finished for CHILDREN and INFANTS it's 5 breaths first, because the cause of cardiac arrests for them it's almost always linked to respiratory issues. If still not breathing, proceed with the 30:2. Might change around the world so...

The procedure has change a lot over the years in hopes of making it easier for people to digest and remember.
