The use of the Basic Buddy CPR manikin can help save a life. Being trained in CPR and first aid can be valuable when someone is in serious medical distress. By knowing what to do in an emergency medical situation can mean the difference between life and death. Once the heart stops beating, brain death occurs in 4 to 6 minutes. Performing CPR provides oxygen to the brain and other important organs to give the victim the best chance of full recovery after EMS takes over. By learning CPR, my students will gain a skill that they can use for the rest of their lives.
