Description

An essential element of emergency care consists of providing supplemental oxygen. Anyone expected to use a medical oxygen device, i.e. workplace first aid responder, EMS responder or Medical Center responder can benefit from this program. Oxygen Administration effectively outlines the importance and use of portable medical oxygen equipment. This course describes the various prescription and emergency devices available, when and how to use them on breathing and non-breathing patients, how to maintain and store devices and cylinders, and the legal issues surrounding use by non-medical workplace first aid responders. This textbook is ideally suited for students in appropriate allied health programs. Upon successful completion of the course, they are eligible to receive FREE National Safety Council course completion cards for Oxygen Administration.
