Heyy,
Soooo I was eating lunch and this guy Conor put a plastic bag over his head and Conor and two other guys were foolin around with them and Conor stuck in some plastic in his mouth and I had to yell at them for it and tell them what happens. So how would I save someone if they were suffocating on a plastic bag!?

Check and see if their breathing on their own and if they have a pulse. If they are not breathing have someone call 911 while you check their mouth for an obstruction and clear the airway. IF they are still not breathing but have a pulse you will have to start mouth to mouth resuscitation. If they are not breathing and have no pulse then CPR must be started.
If you do not know how to do CPR or rescue breathing and are over 16 years of age contact your local Chapter of the Red Cross, American Heart Association, Local Fire Department or Hospital to see when the y are scheduling a class. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
