She jumped down next to Robert, and she felt for a pulse, but he didn't have one.

At this point, Kimberly knew she maybe had a couple of minutes here to basically revive Robert or he was doomed.

And so Kimberly, she worked immediately on stabilizing Robert's spine while one of her team members, one of the other first responders, jumped in and began doing CPR.
