Trained for CPR????

[Emma_Girl]

So, how many of your are certified in CPR???? It's really important that you get this certification. You never know when you might need it. I would strongly advise a certification in CPR, and First Aids.

Who would do it?

it's funny u started this topic because some japanese group are challanging the CPR procedure and claim that u don't need to perform the mouth-to-mouth rescue and just concetrate on the chest compression...

I used to have this certification...I should do it again...I forgot all the stuff...maybe after the bar this summer

Once u get ur CPR certification it's good for 1 year, but since i took mine at school, it's good for 2 years..

with my teaching certification, i was required to take all of the first aid training certificates. i am certified to do first aid, cpr (adult and child) and AED. but i seriously pray to God that i am never in the situation to use what i got trained it. the stupid annie always died when i used it. :(

I was also trained to do AED too..But while i was practicing cpr, i seriously felt sooo sick...

i was certified for first aid, AED, and CPR for adults, infants and babies.
but i did it back in my medical class in high school- so it has expired. :(
i need to go get re-certified, its so nice to know you can actually save a persons life with these.

ps. about a week before i was certified, i was a waitress and one of my customers started choking. when your put into that kind of situation you have to think fastttttt.

I've been trained, retrained, reretrained, then rereretrained in cpr/aed and all that crap.

And your annie dies because there is a 1 and 60 chance (latest statistics I was taught) that you will actually save a person using CPR. Even less for children and infants.

seriously, will i ever use an AED?

More and more establishments are starting to equip themselves with AEDs. In the near future, it'll be just as common as a fire extinguisher, even in the home.

don't take it at wsu, it's way too long and expensive. go to the red cross and get certified there. you'll have them all done in 1 week.
