MCR Medical CPR Rescue Mask, Adult/Child Pocket Resuscitator, Hard Case with Wrist Strap

Clear and concise and a reminder of what I just learned in getting CPR Certified and I shared an extra purchase with my daughter in law for my grandchildren and her students as well as my son.

Luckily, I've never had to give CPR under actual emergency conditions. However, I've taken first aid/CPR classes and been CPR certified for years. Long enough, in fact, that I was first trained back when there were no treatments for pathogens like HIV. If someone has a really bad day, I don't want to hesitate, but I don't want to put myself at unnecessary risk, either.One of the best pieces of advice I got when going through CPR training was to buy a mask like this one and keep it somewhere safe but out of the way. If you have to give aid in an emergency, this mask and a pair of nitrile gloves (I keep both in a first aid kit in my car) will give you reasonable protection. No, they aren't foolproof, but definitely better than nothing.If you know how to give CPR, get one of these. Buy them for family members if they know how to give CPR. Stuff an extra pair of nitrile gloves in the carry pouch if possible. For about $9, you get a lot of peace of mind in an emergency.

My daughter made me purchase it for her pool lifeguard test and it worked perfectly.

Ok so I have waited quite some time to give this product a review. The good part is that I have not had to use this mask yet. An on the other side of that coin, its hard to give a full review with out actually every using it. Guess I will have to get a second one just to test it on a CPR dummy. As you can see in the photos I have attached, this is in my small first aid kit. (link below this review for the Condor EMT pouch) This is a must have in any basic first aid kit or emergency preparedness kit. I highly suggest taking some classes on CPR and getting your self certified, its worth it and not that difficult to learn. This mask just protects you from anything harmful that your victim may be a carrier of. Side note: Always wear gloves and eye protection. I carry clear safety glasses at all times out of habit.Condor Rip-Away EMT Pouch (Black)

Highly recommended by my CPR trainer. Small enough for a glove box or backpack/large purse. Can save a life, glad to have ones pre-placed in areas I frequent. My firefighter spouse has one too.

Easy to use

Got this for my son who is a trained emergency responder. He keeps it in his truck and takes when he goes on hikes.
