Just a few days ago, Ryan applied for a job as a bouncer at one of the local clubs. He had studied ninjitsu, aikido, judo, karate, and gatka for eleven years; he was a weight lifter; he took daily minerals, supplements, and vitamins; he was into healthy eating and health foods; and he seemed well suited for such a position. When Ryan received notification that he had been chosen for the job, he was especially happy. Due to the fact that this was a special disco, however, he had to go through a five week training class.

On the first day of class, the teacher began talking about drinkers who drink in an abusive manner and what the bouncers, bartenders, and barmaids should do when this state of affairs arises. When the instructor started talking about alcohol poisoning, Ryan was pleased to learn that all of the new bartenders, bouncers, and barmaids were required to learn about an alcohol overdose and precisely what they should do when they saw a drinker who was manifesting alcohol poisoning symptoms or displaying alcohol poisoning signs.

More directly, all the new employees learned that vomiting and nausea were almost without exception one of the first signs of alcohol poisoning and that unconsciousness was almost certainly the most highly perceptible alcohol overdose symptom or sign. The lecturer also made it a point to emphasize the fact that alcohol poisoning signs were signals from the brain and from the body that the individual had ingested more alcohol than his or her body can metabolize.

There were, nevertheless, quite a few other signs and symptoms of alcohol poisoning that all the new bartenders, bouncers, and barmaids were trained to be conversant with. For example, the class members were made aware that people who experience alcohol poisoning often have seizures, exhibit confusion, exhibit poor reflex responses, and they are difficult to awaken.

Not only this but, the students in the class were made aware that many drinkers who suffer from alcohol poisoning also manifest slurred speech; blue tinged or pale skin; little response from painful stimuli, for instance from pinching; and slow, shallow or irregular breathing.

To highlight the bearing that binge drinking has on alcohol poisoning, the instructor told the students in the class that an individual who gets smashed just once annually is, by definition, involving himself or herself in alcohol abuse. Such an individual, however, is probably not an alcoholic, but is almost certainly engaging in binge drinking. As expressed by the trainer, engaging in binge drinking even one time, sadly, can lead to an alcohol overdose that in some circumstances can be fatal.

The instructor then explained to the class members that the most fitting response for an alcohol overdose is the following: if it is assumed that a drinker has alcohol poisoning, call 911 and ask for emergency medical assistance, even if the individual is underage. By taking this course of action, the person will get the prompt alcohol poisoning medical attention she or he requires.

After learning about alcohol poisoning and particularly about the signs and symptoms of alcohol poisoning, it may be noted, Ryan felt that he had learned some critical information that might save an individual's life in the foreseeable future. As a matter of fact, Ryan learned that knowledge of the mainstream alcohol poisoning symptoms and signs and knowing how to quickly and properly respond to such signs and symptoms (by immediately calling 911 and asking for urgent medical assistance) can help an individual avoid a deadly case of alcohol poisoning.
