QCISD District Nurse, Kim Dickey, spent some time in the CNA - Health Science classes recently at QCHS. Nurse Dickey demonstrated for students the proper way to put on, take off and dispose of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) worn in the medical workplace. Students were also instructed on the use of an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) and the importance of maintaining the oxygen supply to the brain during a cardiac event. Each student then practiced giving chest compressions on the CPR manikin. Students completing this course are on track to graduate from QCHS with their CNA certification.
