黄瓜视频 began holding a series of Choke Saver classes in December 2022. Since then, more than 120 people have been certified, including employees of several restaurants in the 黄瓜视频s.
Choking is a silent killer, and seconds count. It can happen to anyone, at any time, and can be a scary experience 鈥� both for the victim and for the people around them. That's why it's so important to know how to respond to a choking emergency. Choke Saver can teach you the skills you need to help someone who is choking, which can make a big difference in the outcome of the situation. By taking a Choke Saver course at 黄瓜视频, you are helping to make the world a safer place.
Massachusetts law requires at least one employee to be trained in Approved Manual Choke Saving Procedures, which include the Heimlich Maneuver and Sequence of Obstructed Airway Maneuvers, for all food service establishments with 25 seats or more on-premises when food is being served.
