In order to check an individuals sign of life, (consciousness, effective breathing, circulation and skin characteristics sometimes are referred to as signs of life.), one must check if it/they/he/she is
breating, etc... If the individual has a pulse but is not breathing emergency CPR must be administered and seek immediate medical assistance (call local/
national emergency services) (e.g. 911/
907/000).
"Oi Matt, you up? Your mate's here to see ya! Blake, be a good sport and see if he's still breating will ya."
