    The document outlines the steps of an emergency action principle sequence for an unresponsive adult victim: 1. The first aider identifies himself and checks the safety of the scene and number of victims and bystanders who can help. 2. Upon finding the victim unresponsive, the first aider performs a primary survey including opening the airway, checking breathing for 10 seconds, and feeling for a pulse for 10 seconds. 3. With no pulse or breathing detected, the first aider begins chest compressions and rescue breathing in accordance with CPR guidelines until the victim shows signs of circulation or emergency responders arrive.
