2. call for help (& AED if doing CPR)
3. protect c-spine

Answer:

  • Try to wake up the woman.
  • Check breathing and heart rate.
  • Call an emergency service.
  • Initiate cardiorespiratory resuscitation (if necessary)
  • Wait for the emergency service to arrive.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is keep calm and try to help the fallen man. Start by trying to wake him up and see if he is conscious, to ask what he is feeling. If he is unconscious and unconscious, you should check the man's heart rate and breathing to see if he is having a cardiac arrest. After this check you must call an emergency service, if the man is breathing and his heart is beating, you must wait for the emergency service to arrive; if the man is not breathing and his heart is stopped, you should immediately begin cardiorespiratory resuscitation until the emergency department arrives.
