“When seconds count, ignorance can be deadly”. . . . In a meeting recently, I heard a compelling story that truly hit home about the critical need for emergency awareness. . . . A woman recounted how her daughter was almost fatally electrocuted while using an electric coil cooker. The daughter, unaware of the danger, accidentally touched the coil and was immediately gripped by a live current, unable to let go. Her mother, paralyzed by fear and unsure of what to do, could only scream for help. Just in time, her husband arrived. Seeing the danger, he grabbed a plastic chair, looped it around their daughter, and yanked her free from the current. She fell unconscious but soon regained consciousness, all thanks to his quick thinking. . . . Reflecting on this, it’s clear: ignorance in emergencies can be lethal and there should be more awareness and education on some life skills. Here’s what everyone should know about handling electrocution: 1. Avoid direct contact with the victim if they’re still in contact with the electrical source. 2. Cut the power if you can do so safely or use a non-conductive object like wood or plastic to separate them from the current. 3. Call emergency services immediately. 4. Perform CPR if the person isn’t breathing or is unconscious, continuing until professional help arrives. 5. Keep the person still and warm while waiting for emergency responders. Knowledge of these steps could mean the difference between life and death. I’m just imagining if the woman’s husband didn’t know what to do also… . . . Let’s make it our mission to educate ourselves and others on these lifesaving measures. Remember, safety isn't just for the experts—it's everyone's responsibility. Happy Weekend guys🤩 #SafetyAwareness #LifeSkills #EmergencyPreparedness #Healthcare #TGIF

🔥Hot summer temperatures like today can pose some safety hazards. Here are some tips for keeping kids safe for the remainder of summer! Check out our blog for more. ⬇️ ☀️Keep Hydrated and Cool - Many children with special needs can be more susceptible to heat-related conditions. Certain medications can cause dryness in the mouth, increase sensitivity to the sun, or impair the body's ability to perspire or regulate temperature. Be sure to ask your doctor or pharmacist if the medications you or your child take have warnings about sun exposure. https://ow.ly/J4Im50SQ7vh

It's the rainy season, it's that time when everywhere gets muddy, the floor gets slippery, and accident rate increases.
