2. You gently touch your neighbor's shoulder and say, "Mr. Veracruz, are you OK?"
1. You recognize that an emergency exists.
3. You activated the emergency response system.


Explanation:

When a person is seen to be incapacitated, the first step after ensuring the scene is safe is to assess the patient by attempting to arouse them. The bystander can start with gentle touch and asking if the patient is okay. If this does not work, quickly transition to shaking the patient, pinching their upper trapezius muscle, or performing a sternal rub to provoke a response to painful stimuli. If the patient is still unresponsive, the bystander should swiftly transition to assessing for a pulse and if the patient is breathing.


If the patient is unresponsive, pulseless, and is not breathing, the bystander must recognize that these are signs of an emergency situation in medical services must be sought after and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) will be necessary.


After recognizing that an emergency exists, the bystander should activate the emergency response system. In the United States, this is calling 911 on any telephone. On iPhone cellular devices, holding the power button and volume up brings up a slider that can activate emergency call; one can also press the power button 5 times.


The order in which to help the neighbor in this emergency situation is prompt 2, prompt 1, and then prompt 3. Assess the neighbor's level of consciousness, respiratory status, and cardiovascular status. Recognize the emergency. Activate an emergency response system.
