Importance of CPR
Thank you to Big Dawg and others for talking abt the importance of initiating CPR immediately
I am a Red Cross certified BLS- CPR/AED/ first aid instructor trainer and high quality CPR is critical High quality CPR means using the correct
hand position and correct depth and tempo for compressions.
The manikins that we use for training have lights that indicate the correct depth and tempo to help students understand how to do the compressions correctly
So some referred to Hands Only or Compression Only CPR - no rescue breaths Keep compressions going without stopping until the area is unsafe or some relieves you or EMS arrives
If using rescue breaths The ratio is 30 compressions to 2 rescue breaths
We recently had a class at First Responders rec center
