Julianna and Audrey come across a person who collapsed, who has no heartbeat, and who is not breathing. Since they are certified, Julianna runs to get the nearest AED, and Audrey starts CPR. When Julianna returns, she starts to follow the verbal instructions on the AED. What mistake did the girls make?

Julianna should have assisted with CPR instead of getting the AED.
They should not have assisted with first aid because they are not paramedics.
Julianna should have followed the written AED instructions.
They should have made sure that someone called 911 first.

They should have made sure someone called 911 first.

Explanation: In a witnessed cardiac arrest with multiple rescuers, one begins CPR while another activates emergency services and retrieves the AED. Calling 911 (or your local emergency number) should be done immediately so EMS is on the way while CPR and AED use proceed.
