The use of emergency oxygen equipment assists the first aid provider in meeting the ill or injured patient's critical need for oxygen in an emergency.  When illness or injury reduces the body's ability to process oxygen, shock will soon occur unless the effects of the decreased amount of oxygen in the blood can be reversed.

 

Providing supplemental emergency oxygen in conjunction with life supporting emergency care is a simple and effective method of increasing the patient's chance of a successful recovery.  In fact, it is usually one of the first medical measures taken by emergency medical personnel in the field and in the hospital.

 

The MEDIC FIRST AID Emergency Oxygen Supplement uses video scenarios, in-class demonstrations, and hands-on student practice sessions to teach the use of emergency oxygen.  Following this supplement you will be confident in your ability to use emergency oxygen equipment in addition to life supporting emergency care to assist in an emergency.

 

PRE-REQUISITES--Students must be certified and current in First Aid and CPR training before start of the oxygen class.
