Jones says she panicked at first, but then her training kicked in. “I realize he was seizing and right away I think the medical in me just kicked in.”

Jones is a medical assistant student at Bryant & Stratton College in Virginia Beach. At the time, she just finished learning the first aid techniques that would help save a man’s life before paramedics arrived.

“I noticed he was bleeding from the mouth. I immediately turned him over so that he didn’t choke on his blood, immediately checked the pulse.”

Jones also performed CPR before first responders arrived. “It was very life altering. I feel really good. I’m always on the lookout now just because you never know what’s going on around you.”
