when you put the victim down for cpr it helps not to put their head in the water.
-
You always suspect and take procedures of a spinal injury if you did not see what happened

I am a lifeguard too and this is a joke

I am a lifeguard / Leisure Manager / RLSS Trainer Assessor.
Suspected spinal injuries and exactly what they are known as - SUSPECTED.
If someone's head is underwater, they are NOT BREATHING.
Priorities for treatment are as follows:
1. Breathing
2. Suspected Spinal Injury
3. Bleeding
4. Bones/Burns
Naturally if you have an arterial bleed, it pushes up in the priorities, but generally the above is right.
Choose life over death - Breathing over spinal.

@1337tiful They saw what happened.

@dangins89 so wuz ur comment
-
@1337tiful You and the six people that "thumbed" this comment up are incorrect. I am a lifeguard... LIFE or LIMB. What is protecting the spine going to do if the person ends up dead. I am assuming you are/were Red Cross certified. People have died from procedures in your comment.

Critics of this clip should check out the real life rescue in "Bondi Beach rescue." In that clip there are REAL lifeguards put under REAL pressure, and making some pretty dreadful mistakes with an unconscious, non-breathing casualty with no pulse. But here's the rub - they save the boy's life. Go figure.
-
1337tiful - not only did they SEE what happened, they videod it. Clearly no spinal.

WTF..?
Why would you even pull him out of the water?!
Fake lol..

@GhostShell2007 Yes, it was staged for a video.. as the description states >.> However, what is wrong with that statement? In a park with more than just lifeguards, aka park rangers and others staff that needs to be informed of a rescue, what else would be a proper statement? "All [park name] units, we have a [activity] off of [stand]" Seems logical to me.
