A police officer in suburban Posen is being hailed as a hero after he helped to revive a baby who had stopped breathing earlier this week.
“I held him with my left hand and started doing chest compressions with my right hand, just using my two fingers,” he said.
With an ambulance en route, he says that he felt the baby begin to breathe, and then the infant began crying.An ambulance arrived on the scene just moments later, whisking the baby to an area hospital.He says that he credits his infant CPR training class with allowing him to stay cool under pressure.
“It’s one thing to train for this stuff and go through it in class, but when you’re actually able to do it and the baby starts breathing again, it’s one of the most rewarding things,” he said. “I was just glad that I could keep that family whole.”
