"Hi again, I’m Michelle of the AD HOC Group. Now that you’ve learned all the steps for infant CPR, we’re going to put them together in a full scenario. First you’re going to check for response, and then you’re going to assess breathing, position the head. Look, listen and feel for breathing. Give two breaths and begin compressions. Practice along with me. Count out loud so that you keep track of the compressions as you practiced, then reposition the head, give two breaths and resume compressions. Do five cycles of breaths and compressions. When you’re through with five cycles of CPR, call 911 for help, then resume CPR. "
