Skill Practice

Skill: BVM and Chest Compressions Objectives: Properly perform the entire sequence of 1 & 2 Rescuer CPR with AED. Instructions: Have students do several rounds of compressions. Note feedback devices on manikins. Precautions: DO NOT LECTURE – force your students to repeatedly drill the skill until it becomes second nature. The goal is to create muscle-memory, so repeat the drill multiple times.
