Basic
Life Support Skills
Health
is wealth. There is nothing in our life that is more valuable than good health.
Without health there is no happiness, no peace and no success. Witty
International School, Pawan Baug organised a Basic Life Support workshop by Dr.
Chakradhar Rao and his team keeping in
mind the pressing need of emergency life saving skills for students of Grade
VII.
A
person with bad health cannot enjoy the pleasure of being wealthy. Health,
hence, is more valuable than money. Money cannot buy health and happiness. But
a healthy person remains in a state of bliss and happiness. And in today’s
pressing times health should be our priority, we have to take care of ourselves
only then will we be capable enough to help others when required, as we will be
available to discharge the duties and or will be of quite a help at the time of
a major requirement. Dr Chakradhar Rao and his team guided and lead our young
students into the world of Basic life Support which would help in early
recognition and calling for immediate help during medical emergencies.
Dr
Chakradhar Rao delivered a lecture on methods that will help save the lives of
people who are in need of urgent medical attention such as those lying unconscious
and those who suffer from choking or burns. For example, if we come across
someone lying unconscious on the road, we need to do first tap on his body to
check his response. If there is no response, the body pulse needs to be checked
and the nearest hospital should be contacted for help. Before the ambulance
arrives, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should be administered on the
chest. He informed that while doing CPR, chest compression should be hard and
fast on the centre of the chest of the patient.
The Principal, Mr Bijo
Kurian stressed, “At Witty International School we always emphasise on health
care along with education. It is mandatory for us to be self-proficient in
looking after oneself and others in times of medical urgency.”
