The steps of performing CPR are as follows:
1. Check for responsiveness and call for help.
2. Open the airway and check for breathing.
3. Start chest compressions.
4. Perform rescue breaths.
5. Continue CPR until help arrives.
The main difference between CPR for adults and infants is the technique used for chest compressions. For adults, the compressions should be about 2 inches deep and at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. For infants, the compressions should be about 1.5 inches deep and at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute.
Yes, you can perform CPR on someone with a pacemaker. The pacemaker will not be affected by the chest compressions or rescue breaths. It is important to follow the standard CPR protocol and call for medical help if the person does not respond.
CPR classes are for anyone who wants to learn the basic skills needed to help adults, children, and/or infants during cardiac emergencies. BLS is more comprehensive as it is designed for Healthcare Workers and First Responders (Police, Firefighters, EMS). The BLS certification covers everything that the CPR classes cover, but includes additional life-saving techniques that meets competency verification, education, credentialing, and privileging requirements.
When deciding on which certification to pursue, it generally comes down to your career goals and/or your personal interests. If you are in the healthcare field or are a first responder, BLS certification may be best. For individuals who simply want to learn basic life-saving skills, CPR certification may be a good choice. The type of certification you will need will often come down to your particular industry's requirements. We always recommend checking with your employer on which course to take.
We know that people lead busy lives and our regularly scheduled classes may not work for you. THis is why we offer the option to coordinate with us for a date and time that works better for you. We can do weekdays, evenings, and other Saturday mornings that might fit your schedule better!
