If you are alone with an unresponsive resident not breathing normally and you are not trained in CPR, what should you do?

Begin CPR immediately without calling for help.

Call for help and follow facility protocol; do not delay.

When you’re alone with someone who is unresponsive and not breathing normally and you aren’t trained in CPR, the priority is to get help going right away. Call for help immediately and follow your facility’s emergency protocol. This ensures trained responders and needed equipment (like an AED) arrive as fast as possible. Delaying to do other actions, such as moving the person to another room, checking for a pulse for minutes, or attempting CPR without proper training, can waste precious time and may cause harm. Since CPR requires training, you should not perform it yourself; wait for trained personnel to take over and guide the next steps according to your facility’s procedures.

Move the resident to a different room.

Check for a pulse for 5 minutes before acting.
