Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying?

[hah]

i probably would if they werent some druggie with a smell of drink of them

[Special]

depends because sometimes you can get blamed for their death..... if their teeth are horrible i would take one look at ring 999

[alexxxxx]

i'd give it a go.

[myke]

yes cus i am a pro first aider mannn 8-| jkes but i know first aid

[dirrty]

i wouldn't even know what to do for CPR, so no.

:eusa_snoo

If their teeth are horrible just don't give rescue breaths... You can still give chest compressions, same goes for if the mouth contains blood/infections or you just don't feel comfortable with it.

And of course I would, no doubt about it. This tramp probably has a family, the only time I would justify someone not giving CPR to a casualty would be if that person is a young child, not physically able to or is unable because they don't know how to administer it (therefore more likely to cause extensive internal damage).

[Richie]

no because I don't know how to do CPR, but id try get them help.

[Mikey]

Erm possibily if no one else was around to help. If they had infections around their mouth then no thanks because there would be a small chance of me catching whatever they have. PUKE

[Nicola]

Yes because I know how to do it and I couldn't just like, not do anything...

[Nixt]

Most certainly. I'd do everything within my power to save them providing I was safe myself. Regardless of their status in society it is still a life and I don't think I could bring myself to ignore the fact they were in need of help.

[Hulnu]

Mhm tricky one.

I help out with St Johns Ambulance so I feel that it would be best if I tried to help the person, how ever if I did not I would more than likely fell awful after.

[jackass]

Yeah I would. In certain cases I wouldn't do mouth to mouth, but I would still try to do whatever it takes.

[Erotica]

No, I wouldn't. I don't know how to give someone CPR and really, I wouldn't want to give it to, of all people, a destitute.

[Azul]

If he could spare any change, yes.

[Dean]

I probably wouldn't which sounds really harsh but what if they have disease or something :s

[Xtina]

Nope, I don't know how to give CPR, and I don't know what their lips have been touching
