Course overview
Course description
This paediatric first aid course will teach you essential life-saving skills to use in an emergency.
Paediatric and baby first aid courses teach you crucial skills for dealing with emergency situations involving children. The protocols and procedures differ in children, making this knowledge essential for anyone who has regular contact with kids.
First aid courses are useful for anyone who has contact or a duty of care towards minors. This includes volunteers, babysitters, and parents.
This would be the perfect course to begin to understand more about paediatric first aid and understand the theory before going on to an in person first aid course in the future
