CPR Techniques and Procedures

The video tutorial guides viewers through the steps of performing CPR on an unresponsive adult. It begins with ensuring the scene is safe and checking the victim for consciousness. If there is no response, the viewer is instructed to call 911. The tutorial then covers positioning the victim on a hard, flat surface and checking for breathing and signs of life. If there are no signs, CPR is initiated with chest compressions followed by rescue breaths. The process of 30 compressions and 2 breaths is repeated until signs of life are observed, another rescuer takes over, or professional help arrives.
