Creating Awareness Of Drowning Emergencies
The increase in interventions by bystanders has helped to rise the number of surviving children in case of drowning.
Dr. Zulma Berrios, Chief Medical Officer at West Kendall Baptist Hospital, explains bystanders will be anybody that can notice that someone is having trouble and can help him.
She also says the evidence has demonstrated that doctors could dramatically improve the survival rates by bystander intervention and initiation of CPR and rescue press. Also, they diminish any long-term sequelae for the victims when they survive.
