Simple digestible nuggets that can be followed even when in the middle of an emergency.

I'm a bit concerned about the clarity of information on this app. For example, it explains that if someone is having difficulty breathing and is unresponsive, they must be turned on their "side and head tilted back". That sounds like a very difficult and contradictory position to get the body into, especially when the diagram shows them lying on their back, NOT their side. Very irresponsible instructions.
