CPR

Ugh...time to go get CPR certified again. I always feel like a huge doof in front of everybody. I haven't ever had to use it in a hospital setting yet thank god. But I'm getting recertified with nurses and respitory techs who do it all the time I'm sure. Blah........ Talk about nerves. I don't even understand why I get nervous. Its like highschool all over again every two years lol. Time to go be the uncool kid lol

When I got mine, my dummy didn't work right.

You know, when you tilt their head back and breathe, their chest is supposed to rise? Ya...mine didn't. The thingymajig never opened to allow air...regardless of how tilted the head was.



I'm certified to use the defib...defrib...ulator...thingymajigs too.

I need to get certified again. I was certified in high school...I loved health class

I hope I never have a heart attack around you!. I can just hear it: "Go get me the thingamajig do-hickeymabobbers!"

That would be me...

"You know...those things that you go CLEAR! for. Ya! Those! Go get them!"

I have never been certified. I need to go get certified. Where do you guys go? Do the fire departments offer the classes/certifications?

Well I passed lol...but I was used as the live "dummy" for hymlic (sp) manuver and the instructor said "go unconsious" and I was like huh? He wanted me to go limp..... got laughed at by the whole class. But I passed yuck two years till have to go back!

Good job on passing! Its okay...its hard to be a "dummy"

lol. Yea I am known for being clueless and ditzy. Its hard to for me to "act" smart...lol I just can't focus all my energy in it.
