My Boyfriend Is A Rescuer (COMPLETED/UNDER REVISION)

CHAPTER 12

"Times up! Attention para sa lahat. Today we'll be doing basic life support o yung tinatawag nating BLS. So, dahil ako lang naman ang babae rito syempre dapat ako yung magiging victim at may mag rerescue sa akin."

"Ano ba yan, nagpi-feeling na naman." Bulong nang isang rescue at alam kong si Zeb iyon. "You will be the one to rescue me." Ngiti kong sabi sa kanya at halos madura niya yung iniinom niya. 

"So let's start for some information before we go to the BLS." Sabi ko sa kanila at patuloy akong nagsalita. 

When a patient experiences a resperatory arrest, cardiac arrest or obstructed airway, you need to act swiftly and promptly starting with basic life support skills. 

When you arrive on the scene, you need to recognize that an emergency exists, size up the scene, form an initial impression and complete a primary assessment. The information gathered from these steps is used to determine your immediate course of action. 

SCENE SIZE UP

As a healthcare or public safety professional, you have a duty to respond in an emergency. Your actions during emergency are often critical and may determine whether a seriously ill or injured person survives. 

When called to emergencies, you must keep in mind a few critical steps for your safety, the safety of your team, as well as the patient and bystanders. As part of your duty to respond you must size up the scene to determine if the situation is safe, how many patients are involved and the nature of the illness/mechanism of injury; gather an initial impression; and call for additional resources including any additional equipment and providers as needed. 

"So hihiga na ako at ikaw Erasmus, paano mo i-aapply lahat ng natutunan mo rito?" Tanong ko sa kanya at humiga na ako na parang nasaktan.

Ilang minuto akong nakahiga pero hindi pa kumikilos itong si Zeb, aba't pinagtritripan niya ba ako!

"Hoy Zebulon ano na? Inamag na ako rito sa sahig." Galit na sabi ko sa kanya.

"Tinitignan ko nga kung okay yung paligid. Iyon ang nakalagay sa manual, ano ba yan di nagbabasa." Inis na sabi niya sa akin, at lahat naman sila nagsi tawanan. 

Idinilat ko nang kaunti ang aking mga mata at nagsi higaan ang mga loko sa sahig. Si Shaun, Zeb at si Archie ang rescuers for the day. Kaya sila yung magre rescue sa amin. 

ERASMUS' PoV

Inilibot ko ang aking paningin at tinignan kung may mga natira pang pasyente, iisipin ko na lang na ito na yung totoong trahedya. Kahit na banas na banas ako sa mukha nung halimaw na yon. 

"Magsitayo na kayo riyan, move on to the next chapter ng module." Pabiro kong sa kanila at tawa na naman ng tawa ang mga loko kong kaibigan.

"Very good Zeb, may natutunan ka naman pala sa akin." Sabi ni Zyrene. "Sa module ako natuto hindi sayo, you're too assuming ha?" Sabi ko sa kanya at umupo na kami agad.

Nakita ko naman na inis na inis siya sa aking ginawang pang aasar sa kanya. 

Sarap niya kayang asarin, yung tipong halos umuusok na yung kanyang ilong. Natatawa talaga ako pag naiisip ko yun, para siyang dragon.

Binuksan ko ang BLS Handbook ko at patuloy na nagbasa, for sure kasing tatawagin na naman ako non, kaya't ipapakita kong deserving ako para makuha ko ang certificate ko.

Because, I'm Erasmus Zebulon and I am a highly skilled rescuer when it comes to medical things. Tinitingalang gwapong nilalang at pinag aagawan.

Initial Impression 

     Before you reach the patient, continue to use your senses to obtain an initial impression about the illness or injury and identify what may be wrong. The information you gather helps to determine your immediate course of action. Does the patient look sick? Is he or she awake or moving? Look for signs that may indicate a life-threatening emergency such as unconsciousness, abnormal skin color or life-threatening bleeding. If you see life-threatening bleeding, use any available resources to control the hemorrhage including atourniquet if one is available and you are trained.  

Primary Assessment of the Unresponsive Adult Patient 

     After completing the scene size-up and determining that it is safe to approach the patient, you need to conduct a primary assessment. This assessment involves three major areas: assessing the level of consciousness, breathing and circulation.   

"Ma'am Zyrene ikaw ulit yung pasyente. Sabi kasi rito sa ating manual, ADULT PATIENT." Sabi ko sa kanya at sumigaw naman siya. Binatukan pa ako kaya't napayakap ako kina Archie at Shaun.
