Funzo App users interview.

The day started like the usual days but the trainers are all optimistic about the Certell content offline distribution to the users in rural areas upcountry. We arrived safely to Beverly schools of Kenya near Aberdares ranges well known of being the one of Kenya water catchment areas. We set up our interviews that have to start 1 hour latter. Interviews in tech, UI and research groups kick off with users appreciating their efforts of contributing since from the planing stage till today learning stage.

Aberdares ranges being the source of Kenya long river Tana, that drains its waters to Indian ocean. Other species of flora and fauna are mostly found in the moorland where Bongo the rare antelopes are found, So it wasn't only the education mission for those are nature lovers like I we were so happy to encountered the following in the rich ecosystem on our way to the school we spotted the;

FIRST AID WORKSHOP.

Healthier environment and people health our key focus.

We took our positions ready to be trained how to handle emergency health issues that may occurs.

Doctor Micheal introduce us to ABC the term that means Airways, Breathing and Circulation.

Airways;

• Choking is caused by a blockage in the throat, which restricts airflow. For any choking person the first thing you need to check is the airways, whether is blocked or if someone is choking you need; 
• to perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) or back blows or both. Rapid first aid for choking can save a person's life.

Clear airways when choking;

• Most often, choking in adults is the result of getting food stuck in the windpipe. In children, choking commonly occurs when when toys, coins, or other small objects become lodged in the throat or windpipe.

Procedures to perform abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) on someone else:

• Stand behind the person. Wrap your arms around the waist. Tip the person forward slightly.
• Make a fist with one hand. Position it slightly above the person's navel.
• Grasp the fist with the other hand. Press hard into the abdomen with a quick, upward thrust as if trying to lift the person up.
• Perform a total of 5 abdominal thrusts, if needed. If the blockage still isn't dislodged, repeat the five-and-five cycle.

Clear the airway;

• Open the person's airway using the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver. Put your palm on the person's forehead and gently tilt the head back. Then with the other hand, gently lift the chin forward to open the airway.
• Check for normal breathing, taking no more than five or 10 seconds. Look for chest motion, listen for normal breath sounds, and feel for the person's breath on your cheek and ear. Gasping is not considered to be normal breathing. If the person isn't breathing normally and you are trained in CPR, begin mouth-to-mouth breathing. Skip and continue chest compression. 15/1.

Breathing: Breathe for the person;

Rescue breathing can be mouth-to-mouth breathing or mouth-to-nose breathing if the mouth is seriously injured or can't be opened.

• With the airway open (using the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver), pinch the nostrils shut for mouth-to-mouth breathing and cover the person's mouth with yours, making a seal.
• Prepare to give two rescue breaths. Give the first rescue breath lasting one second and watch to see if the chest rises. If it does rise, give the second breath. If the chest doesn't rise, repeat the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver and then give the second breath. Thirty chest compression followed by two rescue breaths is considered one cycle.

Our mission and a slogan is bridging the digital divide and create self-expression in Humanity. Interactive session positively received by everyone in the school and students were very passionate about E-learning despite of the many obstacles that surround them.
