If an adult becomes unresponsive while choking: # Unresponsive is assumed meaning unconscious # Call 911 or local emergency number (have someone else call if available) # Tip head & check for signs of life # If no signs of life, give 2 breaths # If breaths do not go in, reposition head further back # If breaths still do not go in give 30 compressions # Look for object in mouth; if object seen sweep out # Give 2 breaths # If breaths do not go in, give 30 compressions # Look for object in mouth; if object seen sweep out # Give 2 breaths # Repeat sequence compressions, look & sweep if object seen, breaths until breaths go in # When breaths go in check for signs of life for 10 seconds maximum # Give CPR if no signs of life (30 compressions, 2 breaths)

What do you do when you're choking alone?

If you're choking alone, try to perform the Heimlich maneuver on yourself by using a sturdy surface, like a chair or counter. Lean forward and thrust your abdomen against the edge to create pressure and expel the obstruction. If that doesn't work, you can also try coughing forcefully or call emergency services if possible. Stay calm and act quickly, as choking can be life-threatening.

Why shouldn't leave infant or toddler alone while bathing?

You should never leave an infant or toddler alone while bathing because they can quickly slip, fall, or drown in just a small amount of water. Young children can easily become overwhelmed or frightened, and their ability to self-rescue is limited. Supervision ensures their safety and allows for immediate assistance if an accident occurs. Additionally, a child's curiosity can lead to dangerous situations if left unattended.
