My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

A: Something that I learned was how to properly perform CPR. I knew about chest compressions before, but know I actually know the amount of pressure and speed needed, as well as the ratio of the number of compressions to the number of chin tilt breaths.

B: A key takeaway of this unit for me is that everybody should have a knowledge of CPR to help save as many lives as we can.

C: This unit connects to our previous nutrition unit because they both concern health. There’s also things to do with nutrition that can lead to higher or lower chances of going into cardiac arrest.

Core Competency Reflection

“In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by… “

I do this by asking lots of questions with my fellow classmates to make sure I am on the same page as everyone else. I also answer other people’s questions when I can.

“One lesson that stimulated my thinking about the importance of CPR was… “

I would have to say that the entire unit stimulated my thinking about just how important it is to be trained should the moment arrive where someones life is in crisis.

“In this unit, I am proud that I accomplished …. By ….”

I am proud of my mark on the written test. I felt a lot more confident when doing the assessment of actually performing CPR on a doll and using an AED, but luckily the test went well and I was able to remember almost all of the technical information.
