assume that all body fluids are a possible risk; use gloves and/or breathing barriers, if available, and always wash your hands after care.

infant’s mouth and nose, put your mouth

over the infant’s nose while plugging

the infant’s mouth

Breathing Tips (cont.)

• If the breath does not go in, reopen

the airway (tilt head and lift chin)

before giving the second breath

• Stop breaths when you see the chest rise

and remove mouth so that the air expels

naturally from the lungs

her mouth with a clean cloth and/or

your finger and continue breaths
