What are the 3 C’s in a CPR situation?

Purple Heart

The 3 C’s help guide immediate actions when encountering a medical emergency:

  1. Check: Assess the environment and the victim’s condition.
  2. Call: Contact emergency services (000) and report the situation.
  3. Care: Begin CPR and provide appropriate first aid until help arrives.

Following this order ensures an effective and calm response in high-pressure situations.
