If you have been in the body art profession for very long, you probably already know that there are different people with different sensitivities to different things. Not only can they have severe anaphylactic reactions when opposed to certain inks and dyes, but they could also get infections and have other problems. You never know. They might even have a hard time seeing a needle and they didn't know it, so they passed out and went unconscious. Would you know what to do? Would you know how to treat them in a emergency? Would you know how to save their lives if they went unresponsive, stopped breathing and lost their pulse? In this program, we're going to be teaching you some of the applicable first aid skills that could help you as a body art professional.
If you've been in the body art profession for very long, you probably already know that there are many different types of people with many different sensitivities to various things. Not only could a client have a severe anaphylactic reaction when exposed to certain inks and dyes, but they can also get an infection, as you now know, or have other medical problems while you are working on them.
While this section is optional, it's also important, because you just don't know. An emergency can happen at any time, which means whether you want to or not, you may just find yourself in a situation where this information could help you. And more importantly, help the clients you serve.
Imagine you have a person in your tattoo chair who is afraid of needles and unfamiliar with what you're about to do, and as soon as you begin giving them a tattoo, they go unconscious. Would you know what to do?
Would you know how to treat someone having a medical emergency? Would you be prepared to save a client's life if that client suddenly became unresponsive or stopped breathing or lost their pulse?
In this very important but optional program, we will be teaching you those exact skills so that if faced with an emergency, you will be able to confidently answer yes to all of the above questions.
