June 14, 2002, Newsletter Issue #22: Solo Choking Rescue

Tip of the Week

Alas, we single girls eat alone many a night. If,
heaven forbid, you choke on your food and need to have
the Heimlich maneuver performed, you can help yourself!
Here are a couple of ways you might want to remember:

1) Lean over the back of a chair and press forcefully
to pop out the food.
2) Do abdominal thrusts on yourself:
a) Make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb
side of your fist against your abdomen, just
below your navel.
b) Grasp your fist with the other hand. Give a
quick upward thrust into your abdomen. This
may cause the food to pop out.
c) Repeat thrusts until the food pops out.

Be prepared for the uneventful and unexpected!
