This is useful, thank you! We did have CPR class in secondary school, and I agree it's needed everywhere. It'd be nice to have a refresher.
Emergency-wise, my household reacts very differently to things. I've been raised in an environment where injuries and danger weren't taken very seriously, plus apparently my family's threshold for pain is high. (Something you don't learn about until you mingle with other humans and they get hurt. Suddenly, a lot of h/c fanworks made so much more sense!) My wife however, comes from an environment where illnesses and injuries were taken very seriously, and has a very low pain tolerance. We definitively react to emergencies and injuries very, very differently! Where she faints at a small cut, I've walked around for hours with broken bones. ^^;;;
