1 DAY EMERGENCY PAEDIATRIC FIRST AID

1 DAY EMERGENCY PAEDIATRIC FIRST AID

Our 1 day Emergency Paediatric First Aid course is our entry level Paediatric specific first aid course and is the first unit of the 2 day, 12 hour Paediatric First Aid course.

The course uses combination of knowledge development, skill development and realistic scenario practice to make sure participants have the confidence in their ability to provide care when emergency situations arise.

Please note: Teachers and people working with children will need to do the full two day course but this introductory course is great for people who would just like to know what to do in the event of a medical emergency involving children and infants.

We also include AED (defibrillator) training as part of this 1 day Emergency Paediatric First Aid course.
