Thank you for this advice. I always contact emergency services immediately if I find someone who is having a serious health event.

However, I spend time in remote areas where emergency services are sometimes an hour away. There is not always mobile phone coverage but to date I have not found anyone in that situation and my longest wait has been half an hour in an urban location.

Neither are taught it

This is a little disappointing, because it sounds like if someone needed it they will not be given it by emergency services. I can only hope that rural responders are taught a little more.
