Something every adult should learn to protect a child

And don’t let your kids stuff mozzarella sticks in their mouth. The cheese expands as it is warmed - had a child do this in front of me - thankfully knew what to do

Buy a dechoking device keep them in your home and cars. There are many of them on the market. Do your own research but these devices have saved many lives. The most important thing is to call 911 and not to panic.

All families should take a CPR class, especially through the American Red Cross. If your child loses consciousness bc the object is still in there, you’ll need the heart to keep circulation at 100 beats per minute (no mouth to mouth) while the ambulance is on the way.

Yep. My uncle choked on something and died. Few decades ago. If only someone could’ve helped him he’d be alive today

my mother saved my life as a child while I was choking on a hard candy.

Twitter for the win. This is good stuff thx.

Why is it's mouth shaped like that? I hope it's only for teaching purposes

My nephew started choking in front my whole family everyone froze as I vaulted the couch and got to him (he was like 7) immediately hit him with the heimlich, probably a little too violently but he was breathing again in a few seconds so it worked

Buy a dechocker device!
