Check for the casualty's response.
Check for Dangers to yourself, the casualty, and others.
Shout for help.
You find a person who is unconscious. After checking for danger and getting no response, what is the very next step according to DRS ABCD?
Start chest compressions immediately.
Check their airway for obstructions.
Look for a defibrillator (AED).
