*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a life saving technique that utilizes chest compressions and artificial respiration in combination or individually to force air back into the lungs and restore breathing.CPR also restores the blood circulation to the heart and brain before any irreversible damage is caused.
CPR is especially beneficial in emergency situations where there may not be a doctor or nurse to help the victim. Thus, an individual who knows CPR can be of much help in such situations when there is a medical emergency. CPR training is useful for everyone. It not only teaches you the process of administering the techniques but also gives you agility to respond aptly in difficult situations.
Although, everyone can benefit from learning CPR, there are some people from healthcare and other fields who need to know CPR as part of their professions.
Four such professions are discussed below.
1. Nurses: During a patient�s stay in the hospital, it is the nurse who has maximum and continuous contact with him. The nurse is responsible for various activities such as taking blood samples, giving medicines, monitoring vital signs, and for teaching the patient about his health and treatment. There may be times when a patient becomes unconscious, has a cardiac arrest, or stops breathing, and the nurse has to perform CPR to save his life. It is the nurse who gets the patient out of danger until the doctor arrives. Thus it is essential for the nurse to undergo CPR training. It is generally a part of their nursing degree and mandatory for all nurses.
2. Paramedics: When an accident occurs on the road and the ambulance is called the paramedics are the first ones to arrive on the scene. They are the first medical contact a patient has. Thus, they are required to make a quick assessment of the patient and provide basic and immediate treatment to stabilize the patient. Many times, the emergency is a cardiac arrest and the paramedic must administer CPR to save the patient�s life. Therefore, these professionals are required to be CPR certified to face such situations so that they do the needful without causing any further damage to the patient.
3. Lifeguards: In addition to being proficient swimmers, lifeguards are also required to know CPR. This is because there are always bound to be drowning accidents at the beach. The victim becomes unconscious and breathing is affected. The lifeguards steps in here to provide CPR and restore breathing. Thus lifeguards must enroll in CPR training and learn all the proper techniques.
4. Physical Trainers: The generation today is highly conscious of health and exercise. Individuals get guidance from a physical trainer and perform their exercises under him. Sometimes exerting the body while performing an exercise or your health condition may cause breathing problems. If the physical trainer is aware of CPR techniques he will be able to handle the situation until an ambulance arrives.
Thus you see why these special people are required to be CPR certified. However, is good for others to learn CPR too. You never know when you may encounter a situation where your services are needed.
