Why Paediatric First Aid Matters

Do you know how to act in an emergency involving a child?

Welcome to the Paediatric First Aid course, where you'll learn essential skills to handle child-related crises. Our goals are to introduce the basic principles of paediatric first aid, emphasize its importance, and provide real-world knowledge on caring for young patients. You'll learn how to handle unconscious children, put them in the recovery position, use the jaw thrust method, and perform child CPR in unconscious situations.

The course covers common and serious injuries, including burns, wounds, choking, head injuries, and anaphylaxis. We’ll explore how environmental factors like heat, cold, air pollution, and water-related incidents impact children's health. Additionally, we’ll focus on responding to seizures, asthma attacks, and offering emotional support. You’ll also learn safety precautions and when to seek professional help. This course will provide the knowledge and confidence to ensure the safety and well-being of children under your care.
