    This document provides guidance on first aid procedures for an unconscious person, recovery position, CPR, use of an AED, and choking. It explains that an unconscious person may not be breathing and requires checking breathing and providing CPR if needed. The recovery position is recommended to help an unconscious person breathe. CPR involves chest compressions to pump blood and rescue breathing. An AED can restart the heart with an electric shock. Choking is addressed with back blows, abdominal thrusts, or coughing. Practical first aid training is advised to understand emergency responses.
