| Emergency Oxygen Supplement |
With the MEDIC FIRST AID® Emergency Oxygen Supplement, the trained first aid
provider will learn the importance of introducing oxygen as an integral
part of the care for an ill or injured patient. Supplying emergency oxygen
helps meet the ill or injured patient’s critical need for oxygen. 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 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. This supplement offers the same easy-learning, low-stress class environment
you expect from all MEDIC FIRST AID® training programs. Excellent video presentations are supported by quality
printed student materials and easy-to-use Facilitator Guide.
The MEDIC FIRST AID® Emergency Oxygen Supplement covers:
- Benefits and Indications for Emergency Oxygen
- Integrating the Use of Emergency Oxygen
- Use of Emergency Oxygen for a Non-Breathing Patient
- Oxygen Equipment Disassembly/Assembly
- Emergency Oxygen Equipment
- Special Considerations for Emergency Oxygen Use
