You know what it is, but do you know how to do it? Over 95% of all choking deaths last year could have been prevented had someone known the Heimlich Maneuver. Spend the next five minutes reading up on how to perform this task, should you or anyone nearby ever need it done. Pay careful attention to how it is properly used, and even study up on alternate forms of the Heimlich as well. When you have more time, sign up for a full Heimlich and CPR class so you can get valuable, hands-on practice before an emergency happens.
