I have received two reports from two separate individuals that they had called Poison Control and were surprised that they were asked for a credit card, and they were requested to pay.

I just go off the Poison Control phone number with Washington State, (Poison Control routes you to your state office)  I have verified that Poison Control is still free and they do not charge for advice on poison issues when it pertains to humans.

There is a charge of $45 for veterinary poison control advice, so if you are calling about a pet or other animal you will be asked for a payment prior to advice.

Here is the actual wording provided by poison control regarding their services for  human poisoning.

What is  1-800-222-1222?

1-800-222-1222 is the telephone number for every poison center in the United States. Call this number 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to talk to a poison expert. Call right away if you have a poison emergency. Also call if you have a question about a poison or about poison prevention.

There is now one single telephone number for poison emergencies. BUT there is still a network of 57 poison centers around the country. When you call   you will still talk to your local poison center experts. Find the poison center that answers your calls.

Have an old number for your poison center posted on your phone? Don't worry. It will still work. But when you get a chance, post and learn the new number.

How does it work?

When you call   , you are automatically connected to the poison center for your area. Your call is routed according to the area code and exchange of the phone number you are calling from.

If you call from a cell phone, you will reach a poison center. Depending on your cell phone carrier, you might reach the poison center in the area where you are or in the "home" area of your cell phone. Either poison center can help you. If you need local assistance but reach the poison center back home, the "at home" poison center can coordinate with the poison center at your current location. You will get the care and information that you need.

In most cases, if your child is poisoned, you should just call Poison Control right away using the toll free nationwide number:

1-800-222-1222

You should not wait for your child to have symptoms, even if you aren't positive if your child actually swallowed any of the poison, or if you aren't sure if it really is poisonous. And don't call your Pediatrician first to ask if you should call Poison Control. If your child had contact with something that could be poisonous, your best bet is to just call Poison Control.

Our recent client and student, Kim McEwen had just picked up her kids from Holmes Elementary when she saw a gentleman keel over on his road bike.

"When I was driving down Doomsday I noticed he had just tipped over on his bike basically," McEwen said.

With her kids still strapped inside their car seats McEwen rushed to the tangle of rider and cycle and knew just what to do.

"So I did chest compressions, checked for a pulse, realized he was not breathing so I did compressions again and at that time he did start to faintly breathe," she said.

The man stopped breathing again about the same time John Sims joined rolled up on his way home from class.

"I pulled over to make sure that everybody had CPR training and they did but I wanted to hang out, just help out and make sure the guy was OK," Sims said.

Together McEwen and Sims were able to revive the cyclist and waited with him until paramedics arrived.

"The adrenaline is running! I have never done that before," McEwen said. "I am trained to infant CPR, I am a newborn hearing screener; to do anybody it was a very incredible experience."

"I was really nervous; I've never done it before but now that I've done it I'd be really comfortable doing it again. It feels really good to help," Sims said.

A video on the Spokane Fire Department's website now teaches "Hands Only CPR." The idea is to do rapid chest compressions - about 100 a minute - which will the blood in cardiac arrest victims flowing.
