Seeking ideas for what skills a caregiver ought to have for an ALS patient. My friend just nearly choked and I sort of knew the heimlic maneuver and it did thankfully work. But his caregiver and spouse did not know how to do it. In addition to knowing the heimlic, are there other lifesaving skills a caregiver needs to know? Is there something better than the heimlic for a choking event? Thank you for any advice.
