This week, the City of New York is holding a trial for a man accused of depriving street entertainer Jordan Neely of oxygen, ultimately causing his death. Testimony has indicated that police officers initially refused to administer CPR to Neely since he was a "dirty" drug user.
CPR shields prevent any skin to skin contact while allowing air to flow to a patient. They can be purchased in bulk for as little as $2.00 each. It's sad to think one of the largest police departments in the world wouldn't be provided these as standard issue.
CPR shields, Narcan - these are supplies that we all need to carry in today's world. You hope you never have to use these items, but you should be ready:
