A 4-year-old boy is alive after he started drowning at Windmill Pointe Park Pool. Luckily, an ER doctor was spending the day at the pool and stepped in to save the little boy's life.

“I was just glad that I was there at the right time,” said Dr. Ashley Nosek.

Nosek works in the emergency room at Saint John Hospital and Medical Center. Right now, she is on maternity leave after having a baby 10 weeks ago. She decided to spend last Friday at the pool, taking her newborn baby there for the first time.

“We were getting ready to get in the pool and then I heard a scream,” Nosek said.

She saw a young boy being carried out of the pool, that’s when her training as a doctor kicked in.

Nosek said a combat medic, pediatric cardiologist, and lifeguard were all there to help her. They set the boy on a picnic table when he was not breathing.

“You assess his airway keeping his c-spine, his neck in line to make sure that there is not a traumatic injury," Nosek said. "You clear his airway and then you make sure that he’s breathing and you check to see if he’s got a pulse."

They were able to open the boy's airway and help him breath again. From there, he was taken to Saint John Hospital where Nosek works.

She says the little boy is lucky so many trained medical professionals were there to jump into action.

“I didn’t have a second thought obviously" Nosek said. "I made sure someone was watching the baby but after that I ran right over there."
