had a question that asked "what does the c in abc's stand for" and i put breathing =[


kinda lame but when one of my students told me that i couldnt help but laugh
 
I'm sorry. Is this supposed to be funny? Or sad?
 
Wow. They seriously thought C stood for breathing? Or did he/she rush past the question lol. Thats pretty funny But sad too.
 
well, figure all the time and money you put into training thus far has assured you won't make that mistake again. It's a start. But one more like it could be the red flag that says "kaput" to any medic fantasies you may have.
 
just try to remember to NOT begin compressions before checking for a pulse and you'll do fine.

LOL...and just in case you do forget....

If your doing compressions and the patient says to you... "Hey that hurts, Stop it"

Well...you should probably go back to the A

Um... I thought that the AHA was now teaching to "check for signs of circulation"... not checking a pulse.
 
Check
Pockets
Run!


lol
 
depends which level of CPR certification you get. The Heartsaver/AED one says "signs of circulation" but the Healthcare Provider/AED one (which should be the one you should have recieved with EMT Basic) teaches you checking for a pulse.
