CPR Reflection
One thing that I didn’t know prior to this class is that during CPR you have to push 5 cm deep and 100-120 reps per minute. This is a really important to know since this is the one of the most important parts of learning CPR.
My main takeaway from this class is how important it is that people learn CPR now so that if the situation comes up, they will be prepared. Most people don’t react because their scared or don’t think they’re good enough, but this class teaches you to be confident and that “I am trained, I can do this.”
Some of the risks for heart problems and strokes are high cholesterol and obesity so having a good diet can help prevent heart problems and can lower blood cholesterol levels.
Core Competency Reflection
- One lesson that stimulated my thinking about the importance of CPR was when I learned about how important CPR is. For example, a person having cardiac arrest needs immediate CPR otherwise they most likely won’t survive.
- When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I try to be extra friendly to make everyone feel comfortable. I aslo try to make sure that everyone’s voice is heard by taking extra time to listen.
- One of the ways I can see using this is to help others if someone needs CPR. Even if someone is having another medical emergency I will know how to react and how to help others. This course helps you learn to remain calm and focus on the problem. I think this class is very useful.
