Hello!
hey whats up!
just finished being CPR certified :D you?
wow sweet not much same old same old
yup super excited, now i can save someone if they're dying, which hopefully never happens
oh my goodness i would freak out i think i got certified once but maybe not i don't understand how you remember exactly what to do
have you forgotten?
yeah you should remind me how to do it
haha ok so you see someone unconscious on the floor like on the sidewalk or something, first you go up to them and say "hey are you ok? are you ok?" if they do not respond then you put your finger on their jugular and move to the soft spot next to it to feel for a pulse, if you feel no pulse and see no breath then you call 911 first then you proceed to give CPR. you're going to take off any obstructing fabric(like a shirt or a jacket) and then take your hands and link them together with your right on top both palms facing down onto the patients chest. then place them in between where the patients sternum would be and between where their nipples would be. then continue to push down keeping your arms straight. give 30 compressions and two breaths. each breath should take about 1 second in duration and wait 1 second between the 2 breaths. make sure the stomach is coming up when you give the breaths or your not giving enough air. to do this you can either do the mouth to mouth or use a medical air thingy but if you were on the sidewalk then obviously you wouldn't have that so you give mouth to mouth. which is when you just put your mouth over the patients lips creating a suckton so no air can get out. proceed to do 30 pushes and 2 breaths until the ambulence gets there, let them know how long you have been giving CPR and any other info they ask. It's a little different in a hospital setting or with an infant or child but that's the basics
oh wow
haha yeah it's kind of a lot
yeah no kidding i dont think i will ever give it but it makes sense you have to be cpr certified to do it anyway right?
nope, if you know how to do it then you make an attemt to help. there's this law called the good smaratain law where you can help someone if you know how even if youre not certified that protects you from being sued, which is to  make people more likely to help cause
wow interesting
a lot of the time people just stand there watching and theres someone who knows how but they're just too scared to do it gotta be confident if you're going to save someones life XP
yeah the weird thing is you wonder if it will actually be helping
what do you mean?
like is the air actually getting to them and when they are unconcious you dont know if they are alive cant you just begin trying after calling 911 and then tell someone to find someone who is certified?? then you can take a break when someone who really knows gets there
yeah a lot of people have been taught how to do it or have been certified but they don't renew their certification. like at girls camp they taught us how to do CPR and none of us were certified. the point is not to revive them but to sustain life until the ambulance can get there to provide proper care
smart
cause if the blood stops flowing to all the arteries and brain then there isn't much else they can do and without air they can suffer from brain damage
yeah good point would you rather be an amazing painter or a brilliant mathematician?
hmm that's a hard one, i would probably be a brilliant mathematician you?
probably the brilliant mathematician but it would be a hard choice
yeah cause if you did art then you could change peoples persepective on the world but with the mathamatician thing you could expand the way we think of the universe
yeah exactly
if you could have one superpower what would it be?
hmm i would want to have telekinesis but not your normal telekinesis but telekinesis at its extreme level
what do you mean?
like i would be able to move particles in any way at any speed even to the point of teleportation and with extreme precision
ooo that's cool
so i could make something vibrate really fast and catch on fire or stop it in its tracks and freeze the whole object
hahaha vibrates a marshmallow and it goes up in flames XD
exactly hahaha
