List and briefly explain 3 of your takeaways from the CPR unit.

CPR is always a skill which is useful to have. It is something you wish to never use but you never know when you are going to need it. The first takeaway is the new acronym “CCC” or constant chest compressions. This was put in place to replace the old method of CPR where you gave 30 chest compressions and follow with 2 breaths. This what put into to get rid of the potential “fear” of not wanting to breath into a strangers mouth. The new CCC method results in constant compressions until the person wakes up. The second thing I took away from the CPR presentation was how to safely use an AED. During the presentation we walked through the steps on how to use an AED. Along with this we were also told locations where to find AED’s incase if we are ever in an emergency. Finally the last thing I came away with from the presentation would be the rates of survival that people come out with before and after someone does CPR. The rate of survival before CPR is 10% and after someone does compressions is boosted up to 40%.

Critical and Reflective Thinking

I can analyze my own beliefs and consider views that do not fit with them.

In this unit there were multiple points where we were introduced to various different views. I agreed with majority of the points spoken for by the presenters.
