Know the signs of cardiac arrest.
It is likely that a person is having a cardiac arrest if they:
🧎Collapse suddenly and lose consciousness (pass out)
😮‍💨Stop breathing, don’t breathe effectively, or start gasping for air
🗣️Do not respond to shouting or tapping.
❤️Do not have a pulse. It’s hard to find a pulse, so you do not need to spend time trying to check it. Instead, call 9-1-1, start CPR, and get an AED.
