This Thanksgiving, we're feeling grateful—for family, friends, and the connections that make life so meaningful. 🍂🦃
As we gather around the table, let's also remember the importance of being prepared. Holidays mean full plates and full hearts—but they can also bring a greater risk of choking at the table. Knowing what to do in those first few seconds can save a life. 💛
Choking First Aid (Adults & Children 1+):
1️⃣ If they can't talk, cough, or breathe → act fast.
2️⃣ Give up to 5 back blows.
3️⃣ If still choking, give up to 5 abdominal thrusts.
4️⃣ Repeat back blows & thrusts until the object is out or help arrives.
5️⃣ If they become unconscious, call 911 and start CPR.
From our team to yours, we're wishing you a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
