Security is responsible for cleaning up bodily fluids such as blood because it poses a potential health hazard and can contain infectious pathogens. Blood can be present in various situations, including accidents, injuries, or medical emergencies. Prompt and proper cleaning is necessary to prevent the spread of diseases and maintain a safe and hygienic environment.

If a person reports trouble breathing, it is important to call 911 because it could be a sign of a serious medical emergency such as a heart attack, asthma attack, or anaphylaxis. Difficulty breathing can indicate that the person's airway is compromised, and immediate medical attention is necessary to prevent further complications or potential loss of life. Therefore, calling 911 is the correct action to take in such a situation.

The correct answer is "Check - Call - Care." In an emergency situation, the first step should be to check the scene for any potential dangers or hazards. Once the scene is secure, the next step is to call for help or emergency services to ensure that additional assistance is on the way. Finally, the officer should provide immediate care to the injured or affected person until further medical help arrives. This sequence of steps ensures that the officer assesses the situation, alerts the necessary authorities, and provides initial care to the individual in need.

If a person is experiencing trouble breathing, it could be a sign of a serious medical condition such as a respiratory infection, asthma attack, heart attack, or an allergic reaction. In such cases, it is crucial to call 911 or the local emergency number immediately for immediate medical assistance. Difficulty in breathing can be life-threatening and requires prompt attention and intervention from trained medical professionals.

In CPR, the cycle of chest compression and rescue breaths is 30 chest compressions for every 2 rescue breaths. This means that after 30 chest compressions, two rescue breaths are given to the person in need. This cycle is repeated until medical professionals arrive or the person shows signs of recovery. This ratio ensures that there is a balance between providing oxygen through rescue breaths and maintaining blood circulation through chest compressions.

A security can perform a medical transport for a John Deere Employee because they are an employee of the company and may require medical assistance or transportation in case of an emergency or health-related issue.

Security must complete a Perspective Report for minor non-emergency injuries. This means that even for minor injuries that do not require immediate medical attention, security personnel are required to fill out a Perspective Report. This report helps document the incident, the nature of the injury, and any actions taken by security. It ensures that all incidents, regardless of severity, are properly recorded and can be referred to if needed in the future.

Giving a person water is not recommended when they may be in shock. In cases of shock, the body's blood pressure drops significantly, and giving water orally can worsen the condition by diluting the blood and further lowering blood pressure. It is important to prioritize medical attention and avoid giving anything orally, including water, until professional help arrives.

You should continue CPR until the person shows an obvious sign of life, another trained responder or EMS personnel take over, or you are too exhausted to continue. This means that if the person starts breathing, regains consciousness, or shows any other obvious sign of life, you can stop performing CPR. Additionally, if another trained responder or EMS personnel arrive and are able to take over, you can also stop. Lastly, if you are too exhausted to continue providing effective CPR, it is important to step aside and let someone else take over.

In two minutes, you should perform 5 cycles. This implies that each cycle should take approximately 24 seconds. The question assumes a specific time frame and asks for the number of cycles within that time. Since 5 is the only option that fits within the given time frame, it is the correct answer.

During CPR, when giving a rescue breath, it is recommended that each breath should last about 1 second. This allows for an adequate amount of air to be delivered to the person's lungs, ensuring proper oxygenation. A breath lasting for 1 second is sufficient to inflate the person's lungs and provide the necessary oxygen to their body. This duration also allows for a good balance between delivering enough air and maintaining the correct rhythm of chest compressions.

When checking for breathing on a victim, it is important to do so for no more than 10 seconds. This is because if the victim is not breathing, immediate action needs to be taken to administer CPR or call for emergency medical assistance. Waiting for longer than 10 seconds could delay potentially life-saving interventions.

John Deere Occupational health will only stabilize non-John Deere employees during a Medical Emergency. This means that if a non-John Deere employee experiences a medical emergency while on the premises or in the care of John Deere Occupational health, they will provide immediate medical assistance to stabilize the individual. However, it does not imply that they will provide ongoing medical care or treatment beyond stabilizing the person's condition.

The correct answer is that effective chest compressions should allow the chest to return to its normal position, be delivered fast at a rate of about 100 compressions per minute, and be smooth, regular, and given straight up and down. This means that after each compression, the chest should be allowed to fully recoil before the next compression is delivered. The rate of compressions should be around 100 per minute to ensure adequate blood flow. The compressions should be smooth and regular, without interruptions or pauses, and should be given in a straight up and down motion to effectively pump blood to the heart and brain.

All supply request should be filled out via e-logger under "supply request"

When an AED is analyzing or defibrillating, it is important to stand clear and not touch the person because you or someone else could be injured by the shock. The electrical shock delivered by the AED can be dangerous and potentially harmful to anyone in contact with the person being treated. Additionally, touching the person may interfere with the AED's ability to properly analyze the heart rhythm, potentially leading to an incorrect or ineffective treatment.
