Medical Emergencies - Cardiac, Diabetic, Seizure and Respiratory Distress

We watch what we eat, exercise regularly and  schedule checkups at the doctor’s office.  But, then we bury our heads in the sand.  Since, learning is meant to be fun, we will present a serious subject in a pleasant manner.  Fun, hands on demonstrations of the cardiac and respiratory systems will teach us anatomy.  Then we will practice by doing. By pretending, we will learn to calmly handle a seizure, diabetic emergency,  heart attack or respiratory problem.  The class is structured with a short lecture at the beginning, followed by practice of the basic skills.  Once the skills are mastered we will simulate real-life accidental injuries to practice our skills.  It is our goal to teach everyone CPR and AED skills so we will do a short practice of these skills as well. 

There is no prior first aid skills or knowledge necessary for this class. go back
