It was the day after her most recent re-certification that she was called upon to put her skills into use. And it hit close\u00a0to home.<\/p>\n<p>Just a few weeks ago, Nancy and her family went out for Mother&#8217;s Day. During the meal, Nancy noticed her mother acting strangely. It then occurred to her that her mother\u00a0may be choking. Thinking back to the CPR training she had taken only the day before, Nancy jumped into action and began the Heimlich maneuver and instructed her brother to call 9-1-1. Before he was able to call, Nancy&#8217;s efforts were successful and her mother began to breathe again.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy was able to remain calm in what would have been a very difficult situation for most of us. She explained that the actions just came naturally because of the training she had received. Reflecting on the whole experience, and looking back on\u00a0all of her\u00a0rescue efforts over her career, this time was different. &#8220;When it&#8217;s a family member, it kind of puts a new light on it,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy reiterated to us that she thinks CPR training should be taught more widely, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.schoolcpr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">especially in our high schools<\/a>. &#8220;You just never know when you&#8217;re going to run into that situation,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Such a small investment of time can really pay off. If you&#8217;re not sure you would know what to do in this kind of situation, take a few minutes and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.profirstaid.com\/training\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brush up on your skills<\/a>.
