CPR

During one of the presentations I learned about CPR. I learned that i could save somebody’s life by performing this simple task. At first you should call 911 right away. The first step if there is water should be to get the individual away from large puddles of water so the electricity doesn’t shock either of us. The next step is to perform 30 chest compressions to the individual. The beat that you can remember is staying alive by the bee gees. Then if the ambulance doesn’t show up repeat this process. Once the ambulance arrives step away and let them do their job. Now that i know this i can take action and save someones life.

During this CPR unit i have learned a lot of valuable lessons. I have learned that only 40% of people will actually do something if someones going into Cardiac arrest. If you perform CPR u can save the persons life. I didn’t realize that you had to check your surroundings before you perform CPR. You must start out by checking the persons pulse. This can reflect on real life because you can save somebody’s life by just doing a simple task. This can help boost up the 40% and make people more comfortable to perform CPR.
