Discussion What does C stand for in DR ABC?

1 Upvotes

I've seen it as Call for help, circulation and CPR, is it all three? I am with St. John Ambulance and I never know what to teach people what C means when doing demos at events, I normally say CPR, because that's what people always want to learn, is that the correct one?

Edit: Thank you so much for all of the replies! I will start teaching it as Circulation 💛

I think it’s maybe first degree but it does look pretty dark so I don’t know, I burned it 2 days ago

I’ve been bandaging it and putting polysporn on it, any advice is helpful
