Did You Know?!
A 2013 report stated that, from 2001 to 2009, an average of 12,435 children (14 years old or younger) per year were treated in US Emergency Rooms because of food-related choking.[Ref:1]
Who’s At Risk?
We all are!
Although the majority of choking occurs in the very young and the very old, no one is totally immune, not even healthy young adults.
Swallowing is a complex action, that most of us take for granted. A sudden gasp, and a foreign body can be inhaled.
For you, for your friends and family, and for your community, please learn about choking prevention and take a live-saving course.
A moment of care can save a life.
