Life Saving Measures

The three presentations were extremely informative and insightful. In the first presentation, I learned that people can overdose on nicotine. I didn’t think that was possible. The other two presentations I was able to get an understanding on how I can save someone’s life by using/ carrying a small kit with me. I didn’t realize how “regular” people can save an already dead person without any medical professional being there. I learned how to do CPR at a younger age, so I thought I knew it all but yesterday’s presentation was a huge eye opener to me. I realized I didn’t know all the steps or how to initiate CPR. If I were to be in a situation where I needed to give someone CPR I wouldn’t know that I should check my surroundings, give at least 30 compressions or what pace I should be going. I am extremely grateful that I was able to attend all three presentations, get a better understanding of the dangers of alcohol and drug use, and how to help my peers when a life threatening situation rises.

Critical and Reflective Thinking Competency Reflection

I can analyze evidence to make judgements. 

As challenging as it can be to avoid peer pressure, I think I can say no to a party or drugs. I’ve seen it take the life out of people and how it makes one act or feel isn’t cool or nice to see at all. Seeing a bunch of people all messed up is something I can see is self harm.
