I agree that we should not be exempt from providing aid to others but I sure think we should be doing more here with our limited finances before we do it elsewhere. Signs of shock can include but are not limited to; muscle weakness, rapid heart rate and breathing, pale tongue and gums, reduced pulse rate, shivering and cool extremities. I believe that we should take care of our own, get our finances straightened out so we can do just that, rather than continuously supporting other countries. A nation generally doesn’t export most of its food during a famine and we should take primary care of our own as Bruce Springsteen’s new song says while still being generous to others in need. I too understand the concept of being charitable and I am not opposed at all to helping where it is needed, and, when there is something to give. But I am reminded of the first rule of first aid: Make sure you are okay first before you try to help others, lest there be 2 casualties. Some people take keen interest in providing first aid as a help to general public. Granted this was a tragedy obviously, but an even greater tragedy much larger is going on in Africa and the general public even knowing it.

You said, “I just cannot understand why those we elect to public office can’t see what we see”. Despite Pence’s small staff, Hill said, the vice president played an important foreign policy and diplomatic role. The certifications such as OSHA training or CPR certifications involve just a small time frame from the busiest schedule in life. After you have developed your family’s first aid kit you will need to store it in a place that can be accessed easily and remains out of reach of small children. Also, it is most important to prevent accidents from happening in the first place. Even in an office environment accidents can happen and it’s therefore essential that each office has a designated first aider. If you are interested to take online CPR training classes, then you can look for some training programs offered by certified instituted in the Chicago. So, there are special CPR Courses Winnipeg and first aid training that addresses this matter. Without obtaining online CPR training, you may never meet the criteria for the job you want.

This collection of supplies allows you to take immediately action against to injuries that may occur every time. Records of training and device maintenance schedules should be current and kept on file, as OSHA compliance officers may periodically inspect a company throughout the year. 65.00 would feed a child for a year! But millions or billions from corporations going to feed when our people are starving is more than I can wrap my head around. Make your own safety kit ready for any emergency that can save you more problems later. Good question. My simple answer would be, I think, that enough is when there are no more hungry people living on the streets in this country before those dollars go around the world. Still is for most new immigrant families whom the social engineers haven’t had enough time to split up yet. Oh Shauna, my little hub won’t scratch the surface but you are right, it is criminal that people in Appalachia still live below the poverty level, have no health care available, and are starving on a daily basis.

Have the residents of our Appalachian Mountains EVER come out of extreme poverty? The context of the sentence is the determinant factor of the need to have windups. If they happen at sea, they will need quick action taken. I do not have the statistics but it is very absurd that a huge chunk of the money given to third world countries do not actually reach those that are in need. Why shouldn’t the rich countries give back to the third world who’s sweat and blood they got rich from.Why is history so short in people’s minds? I understand that the dollar goes further in third world countries. As a Christian, my heart goes out to other countries where conditions are horrible, yet why are we sending money to strangers when our own citizens suffer? Why can’t we help our own people? So for god sake do help the victim.

If you note that the victim is completely unconscious, you should immediately call for an ambulance. Note that not only humans suffer from these conditions. Many authorized institutes are providing occupational first aid training at various levels whose details could be found on their websites. There is a good possibility that the only first aid kit available is the one in your car. You make many good points. Outstanding article though. Thank you for the good read. Interesting article and you are right in so many ways. Oh Randy, you are absolutely right. If you have some right idea about first aid you will able to give first aid which is needed for different type of injury. I’m not ignorant of the fact that there are starving children in the world, but there are starving children here at home, and we continue to give foreign aid to these countries that hate us.
