 Learning Activity #1:
Injuries can happen anytime and anywhere. You cannot always keep yourself and others from getting hurt but you
can protect yourself and others when get injured with a first aid kit. As first aider, first aid kit is our main
partner.

Direction: Identify and draw 5 things that you can find in a first aid kit and explain their functions one by
one in a short bond paper and submit a photo of your work online.
 Learning Activity #2:
Directions: Answer the following questions extensively.

1.How CPR works?

When a person's breathing or pulse stops, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an immediate care
that can help save their life. Cardiac arrest occurs when a person's heart stops beating. During cardiac arrest, the
heart cannot pump blood to the rest of the body, including the brain and lungs. Death can happen in minutes
without treatment. CPR uses chest compressions to mimic how the heart pumps. These compressions help keep
blood flowing throughout the body.

2. What should you do if you are getting tired from giving chest compressions before more help arrives?

Since, giving chest compressions is very tiring, when the time comes that you are getting tired from
giving chest compressions, you should ask help from the people around you by asking if someone knows how
to give CPR and take turns with that person in providing CPR. Every 2 minutes, or later if you get tired, switch
rescuers. Move faster to keep pauses in compressions as short as possible.   If you're alone, keep doing CPR the
best you can. Furthermore, I suggest that if the rescuer will assist in the training of another person in CPR, this
would enable multiple rescuers to have CPR before help arrives.

3. How will you know if a person’ Cardiac arrest occurs when a person's heart stops beating.s pulse has returned
or they begin breathing, while doing CPR?

You will know if a person’s pulse has returned or they begin breathing because once the casualty is
already breathing, has pulse and already conscious, he/she will respond in any way, may be through opening
their eyes, groaning, or any body movements. We should remember that if the person is breathing on their own,
stop doing CPR and place them on recovery position.

4. Can CPR be performed on animals?

Yes, CPR can be performed on animals. But, you need to assess and make sure if your pet needs to have
CPR. CPR isn’t a cure-all. It may be necessary as an emergency life-saving procedure, but it is hard on your
pet’s already-weakened body. That means it can cause further damage. Performing CPR on a pet that does not
need it can also cause physical injury or even death. In doing CPR in on animals, you will breathe in the
animal’s nose instead of breathing into his mouth.
