I attended a free CPR training class offered by our county tonight. It was short, straight to the point and lasted an hour. Most of the participants were well into their senior years. I was an anomaly. I was thinking that the younger set (like me) should be more interested in learning such skills. Just an opinion. Learning CPR was on a must do list and of course now that I have all this free time - It was time. I thought the process would be more complicated but we were taught to keep only two things in mind.
- Call 911
- Do the compressions
Simple enough to keep on mental file right? Meet Annie, I saved her earlier tonight and she came with a CPR refresher DVD. Kinda freaky looking but she actually works!
Now I can't share the motions of doing CPR because I'm not the expert. We were told to check out The American Heart Association for information. Just like how I learned First Aid last month, I hope to never apply these skills on anyone. Just the same, you just never know. Go get trained!
Chelle, display mo si Annie at your bed side ... KAKATAKOT ... JEJE !!!
