ICT CPR

In my first aid classes I go over two different types of seizures. The Absence seizure is always harder to spot. Here’s a good video depicting what one might see when a child is having an absence seizure

Absent seizures can be hard to catch but “the stare” always gives it away. #absentseizure #seizures #stare #childhooddementia #medicallycomplex #medicallyfragile #MCAHS1 #pign #cdg #pigncdg #hypotonia #epilepsy #rarecondition #rare #geneticcondition #HOPE4Hazel #firstinAZ #neuro #brainatrophy #mcahss1 #raredisease

I have had many CPR classes over the last few years but was never told this…..

When you are alone and have a heart attack, what are you gonna do then? Have you ever thought about it?
A rarely good post that can't be shared often enough. Take a 2 minute break and read this:

1. Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.
2.
You are really tired and frustrated. All of a sudden you have chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3.
Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it..
4.
Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course never told you how to help yourself.
5.
How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.
6.
But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7.
Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Here's how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment.
8.
Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9.
FOR WOMEN: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely women have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often women have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line plus sudden fatigue.
Instead of posting jokes, you're helping save lives by spreading this message.

You probably pass one of these every day, but do you know just how powerful they are? 90% of people who get a shock from an AED in the first minute after a cardiac arrest survive. And you don’t need any special training to use one. Just follow the voice prompts to help save a life.

It's VERY IMPORTANT to know the symptoms of heat stroke and heat Exhaustion. Please share this so that more people may have the right information and Please keep an eye on your self and others, you could save someone's life.

How bout them Chiefs!

Such a feel good story with such an important message!

Little League Player, 6, Goes into Cardiac Arrest After Being Hit by a Baseball — and Mom's CPR Saves His Life Oscar Stuebe was hit in the chest by a fly ball, but his mom “went into nurse mode” and saved his life with CPR.

It’s not just in your head: Shifting to daylight saving time is HARD. This week, it’s more important than ever to stick to your sleep routine. It will help your body adjust much faster.

I love having the flexibility to not only educate individuals on life saving skills early in the day, but to also be available to spend some much needed Mama-Son time at the zoo that afternoon during spring break.

Thank you to those who have chosen ICT CPR for your CPR needs! Once again, I appreciate every single referral you send my way!
