Welcome to your Canadian Red Cross First Responder training program; and thank-you for choosing Frontline.

Print this First Responder Study Guide, complete the assignments ahead of time, and bring it with you to each class...so

you can ask questions about any answers you are not sure about.

By doing so:

You will arrive at each class with a greater understanding of the terms and skills you’ll be practicing

You will be more confident in both your FR knowledge and hands-on FR skills

You will be better prepared for the Written and Practical Certification Evaluations at the end of your course

You will be better prepared for your Provincial BC EMALB Licensing Evaluations

These assignments are straightforward…with references to where you can find the answers…however, they can be time

consuming depending on your personal pace and study habits.

Start these assignments as soon as possible

DO NOT wait until the night before each session to start these assignments

You will need the following resources to answer the questions in this EMR Study Guide:

Canadian Red Cross Emergency Care Manual

Session 1

Emergency Care Manual Revisions – Due on Session 1

Answers found in: Emergency Care Manual

1. Find the following passage on page 137 of your Emergency Care Manual:

“After doing 5 cycles (2 minutes) of continuous CPR, recheck for signs of circulation and normal

breathing. Tilt the patient’s head to open the airway and take no more than 5 to 10 seconds to check for

signs of circulation. If there are no signs of circulation, or you are unsure, continue CPR, beginning with

compressions. Check circulation and breathing again every few minutes.”

Take a marker or pen…and cross out that passage:

“After doing 5 cycles (2 minutes) of continuous CPR, recheck for signs of circulation and normal

breathing. Tilt the patient’s head to open the airway and take no more than 5 to 10 seconds to check for

signs of circulation. If there are no signs of circulation, or you are unsure, continue CPR, beginning with

compressions. Check circulation and breathing again every few minutes.”

2. Find the following passage on page 142 of your Emergency Care Manual:

“Recheck for signs of circulation and breathing after about 5 cycles (two minutes) of continuous CPR.

Check for signs of circulation for no more than 5-10 seconds with the hand that was giving compressions.

If there are no signs of circulation or you are unsure, continue CPR, starting with compressions. Recheck

circulation and breathing every few minutes.”

Take a marker or pen…and cross out that passage:

“Recheck for signs of circulation and breathing after about 5 cycles (two minutes) of continuous CPR.

Check for signs of circulation for no more than 5-10 seconds with the hand that was giving compressions.

If there are no signs of circulation or you are unsure, continue CPR, starting with compressions. Recheck

circulation and breathing every few minutes.”

These passages are out of date…but were unintentionally overlooked in the last printing.

The most current CPR guidelines indicate that you should continue CPR once started…until you observe Obvious

Signs of Life as you are performing CPR.

Your EMR Instructor will review CPR protocols with you in greater depth during your course.

3. Find the following passage on page 94 of your Emergency Care Manual:

“During your primary survey, you may discover that an unconscious adult is not breathing. If this

happens, begin the CPR sequence (30 compressions).”

Use a pen or marker to add the words…“and does not have a pulse” after the words…“is not breathing”:

and does not have a pulse

“During your primary survey, you may discover that an unconscious adult is not breathing ^. If this

happens, begin the CPR sequence (30 compressions).”
