1.10 First Aid
Personnel engaged in the installation, operation, or maintenance of the
repeater are urged to become familiar with the following rules both in
theory and practice. It is the duty of all operating personnel to be
prepared to give adequate Emergency First Aid and thereby prevent
avoidable loss of life.
1.10.1 Rescue Breathing
1. Find out if the person is
breathing.
You must find out if the
person has stopped
breathing. If you think he
is not breathing, place him
flat on his back. Put your
ear close to his mouth and
look at his chest. If he is
breathing you can feel the
air on your cheek. You can
see his chest move up and
down. If you do not feel
the air or see the chest
move, he is not breathing.
2. If he is not
breathing, open the
airway by tilting his
head backwards.
Lift up his neck with
one hand and push
down on his forehead
with the other. This
opens the airway.
Sometimes doing this
will let the person
breathe again by
himself.
3. If he is still not breathing, begin
rescue breathing.
 Keep his head tilted backward.
Pinch nose shut.
 Put your mouth tightly over his
mouth.
 Blow into his mouth once every
five seconds
 DO NOT STOP rescue
breathing until help arrives.
LOOSEN CLOTHING - KEEP WARM
Do this when the victim is
breathing by himself or help is
available. Keep him as quiet as
possible and from becoming
chilled. Otherwise treat him for
shock.
