Choking Hazard

First aid for choking

Step one, ask, "Are you choking?"
This is the universal choking sign
Step two, have someone call EMS ambulance
Telephone 911

If victim can speak, breathe, or cough...
Stand by, but do not interfere
And wait for professional help

Step 3
If victim cannot speak
If victim cannot breathe
If victim cannot cough
Perform Heimlich maneuver until food or object is forced out

If victim becomes unconscious...
Clear mouth
Then
Perform abdominal thrusts
5-10 times

Repeat steps until food or object is forced out
Then do mouth-to-mouth or CPR as necessary
Repeat steps until food or object is forced out
Then do mouth-to-mouth or CPR as necessary

Step one (again), ask, "Are you still choking?"
Step two, still waiting on the ambulance, where are they, traffic jam, possibly
Wait a sec, flashing lights, here they come, finally!

This song is legit information
It could save somebody's life someday
If you find yourself in this situation
Remember what we had to say then
Perform abdominal thrusts
Again!
