“You should complete a secondary survey if: The casualty has more than one injury Medical help will be delayed for 20 minutes or more You will transport the casualty to medical help The secondary survey has four steps: History Vital signs Head-to-toe exam First aid for any injury or illness found”
St. John Ambulance, St. John Ambulance First Aid Reference Guide

“To assess the pulse, use two fingers and gently place them on either the inside of the wrist (just below the hand on the thumb side), or on the side of the neck (carotid artery), or for infants, the inside of the upper arm, on the brachial artery. Press just gently enough to feel the pulse. You may have to feel around the area until you find it. Once you have found the pulse, count the number of beats over 30 seconds and multiply that number by two.”
St. John Ambulance, St. John Ambulance First Aid Reference Guide

“Assessing Level of Responsiveness: AVPU AVPU is an assessment tool that provides more in depth information about the casualty’s level of responsiveness. ALERT - When you approach a casualty and their eyes are open, they score an A for alert. The casualty will be able to answer simples questions and will know their name, where they are and the approximate time of day. VERBAL - If the casualty’s eyes are not open but they respond when spoken to they score a V (Voice) for responding to your voice. This person may not be able to communicate effectively or know where they are or the approximate time of day. PAIN - If the casualty does not respond to your voice but does respond when you apply a painful stimulus such as pinching them on the finger, they score a P (for PAIN). This person may move or make noise in response to pain but they will not communicate. UNRESPONSIVE - If the casualty does not respond to voice or pain, they score a U (Unresponsive).”
