Jules :ayatollah: :ayatollah: ............the best advice I can give is remember DR ABC.... Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation :D ........the recovery position, is straight forward (remember to tilt the head backwards, breathing :lol: )

CPR.......depending whoever is training you, they may want you to do rescue breaths :shock: :shock: .......no need really :shock: ...but if they do, two rescue breaths then chest compressions .................. :D

Have fun :lol: ........you've nothing to worry about mate, honestly :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

It's really easy so don't worry. I'm an Emergency First Response Instructor which is the same as the red cross just under a different name (to do with PADI diving instructors)

They will help you out all that they can when you are doing it, so long as you are safe then you will pass no problem. :)

It's actually quite fun! Especially for me as I teach it! :lol:
