There is not enough diversity among Crash Test Dummies either.
No training organization is going to buy 6 more mannequins and lengthen the training schedule to make this happen. While I have _some_ sympathy for the point here, this just isn’t realistic.
To rectify this last of diversity, the AHA has developed a mannequin to simulate a morbidly obese female patient. Unfortunately, it weighs 400 lb and requires a forklift to transport it to the class
The Daily Fail
Store manikins are getting more diverse.
What about robots in movies. Lots of white and.or steel. Not than many black.
You could try to sell a big, black female one but that would be racist and feed into all kinds of stereotypes. You bad man.
make-em some big fat beasties then...
stupid article
I taught CPR for many years - Chest compressions do not depend on color, sex, pregnancy, or “gender expression”. Big boobs aren’t in the way, neither are fat bellys.
location of target - lower sternum, xiphoid process, “chest”, whatever you want to call it, matters.
Disco beat is it - Some organizations teach that you don’t even have to do breaths anymore- Compresssions are enough until The Pros arrive.
Best tip? command someone to call 911 first, before you even start.
Go full scale fat..
force the trainers to transport the dummies to the training sites with motorized lifts.
I don’t understand. Aren’t paramedics trained to save only white people anyway?
Female CPR mannequins will have breasts.
Then people will complain about that.
And some men will refuse to use the female mannequin because they are shy.
There are many reasons for male mannequins.
I’m so sick of the leftist race baiters whining all the time.
This white practice dummy is an obvious use of white oppression designed to impress upon first responders the necessity of saving white men.
The solution is obvious and relatively simple> Design and build practice dummies that correlate to different racial and physical types. For example you could have dummies that represented fat black lesbians (eg: black skin with rainbow lips or something similar). No identity left behind.
And the new practice dummies should be integrated into the training groups with due regard for affirmative action by providing a higher percentage of the new dummies by sexual preferences, race, weight, etc.
Then we’ll be all set. Problem solved.
A mannekin is NOT a human. It is meant to resemble one in those characteristics that can be used to train in CPR.
A mannekin has NO sex, NO race, NO ethnicity, NO language. People who look at a mannekin and see a human of a certain type are insane.
