Top 5 Ways For Lady Doctors To Protect Themselves
This post is dedicated and for all the lady doctors who work late into the night in clinics and hospitals. This article is for them to show them few points on how they can take care of their safety. Do forward & share the post to create more awareness.
4. Escape Plan
If your gut feeling says that you are going to be in trouble, then don’t neglect the signal. It’s always better to attempt to escape before a physical attack is needed.
The attacker might threaten you to go with him/her, and you might be compelled to go thinking otherwise you will be hurt. But the fact is even if you go with him, he has plans to harm you.
So, always the try to escape the primary crime scene. If the attacker feels you are a tough catch, he will himself escape. Run to the nearest crowded area and shout for help.
Throw a rock or stone at him to unsettle him and make a run for the escape. Peeper spray we discussed in the previous point can be convenient in these situations.
The farther you can move away from the scene the safer you get.
5. Attacking Physically
It should be used as a last resort. If in spite of all the precautions you are in a catch 55 situation then attack is the last option. Unless you are a trained fighter, it ‘s hard to outwit the predator purely on a strength basis.
So what do you do ???
You attack the weak spot. It’s not the groin as you might think. It is an option but to hit there you need to get closer to the person facing the attacker. What if the attacker grabs you from behind?
Attack The Eye
Don’t hesitate. Be cruel. Be ruthless because that attacker has no mind to show you mercy.
Eyes are the softest and tender part of the body, and you got to hit it first without delay.
Use your thumb or index/middle finger and ram it into the eye of the attacker. You can attack the eyes even if the attacker is grabbing you from behind.
Uppercut to nose with full force using your palm. It pushes the nasal floor straight up and very very painful. It is very handy if you are at lower level than your attacker.
Finally, a kick to the groin and the macho thought goes away from the mind of the attacker.
You have to show no mercy and inflict the maximum pain. That will give time to you escape the primary site.
