Start mouth-to-mouth breathing immediately-- if possible, even before the person is out of the water. If you cannot blow the air into his lungs, when you reach the shore, quickly put him on his side with his head lower than his feet and push his belly (between his navel and ribs) upward strongly. Repeat several time if necessary then continue mouth-to-mouth breathing at once. Remember: Always start mouth-to-mouth breathing at once before trying to get water out of the drowning person's chest!!
