Essential information
This online Paediatric First Aid course is essential for anyone who works or lives with children; parents, teachers, child-minders and carers, leisure centre staff. You never know when an emergency may happen and when you will need to use first aid skills to remedy a potentially life-threatening situation. It examines how you should adapt basic First Aid techniques for a child or baby and is intended to accompany our online First Aid training package.
By the end of the course, you’ll know how to interact with a young casualty, how to keep them calm, and when to call for emergency support. You’ll learn how to manage potentially life-threatening conditions until professional help arrives.
