This is why it is important to learn basic things, like first aid and CPR. You may not know exactly what to do, but for god sakes, do something.

You can hold someone hand, you can talk to them. You can apply pressure, stabilize their head. You don't have to be an EMT, Firefighter, nurse or doctor to do these things.

Having something to focus on and do helps stave off panic, for both you and the people around you. You do not have to have the big picture, just know enough to make your next decision/action something other than inaction.
