RE: Emergency Response: My Life-Saving Knowledge Level

(edited)

That pouring of water over an unconscious person has long been removed from the first aid manual, not sure if it was there before. One thing people don't know is that pouring of water over an unconsicious person can put the person live in danger because when someone fall or is unconsicious, you need to check if the person is still breathing, if they are, pouring of water in them can get the water into their nose or mouth blocking the airway and this can lead to chocking while unconsicious then worsen the situation.

Best to do is check if they are breathing and their eyes to know the cause of their unconsiciousness, if determine its fainting, then check if its a flush or pale fainting, then do the neccessary and put them in a recovery position, in no time they will be up, but if you check and they are not breathing, the next time is to do the CPR. After you have called for backup.

Also, sometimes fear can grip us, making us to act out but having a calm mind can also help make the situation better. I believe it's something you can do. I trust a superstar.

This was an interesting read. I enjoyed it.
