According to Mayo Clinic, there is a new version of CPR that can be done on anyone who isn’t a drowning victim.

To do it

Ask if patient is okay – if they are conscious, don’t start CPR

Try waking them

If no response, place hand on sternum

Put other hand on top of first hand

Then push rapidly

I highly recommend watching the youtube video.  It does show how to place one’s hand and how fast to push.
