Emergency Paediatric First Aid

This Emergency Paediatric First Aid course will help you meet your regulatory requirements working with children.
The course prepares individuals with the First Aid knowledge and skills needed to act in emergency paediatric first aid situations such as with choking and seizures.

It is highly recommended to have a good understanding of emergency paediatric first aid for the safety of children and it could mean the difference between life and death.

The Emergency Paediatric First Aid qualification has been designed in-line with the current Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements.

Who should attend?

The Emergency Paediatric First Aid course is ideal for anyone who cares for infants and children, such as parents, guardians, grandparents or those who have an involvement with infants and children and who are working as part of a team with other staff who hold a Full Paediatric First Aid Certificate.

Under the Ofsted guidelines a nursery is required to carry out a risk assessment and ensure that an adequate number of staff are First Aid trained.

Successful candidates will learn the roles and responsibilities of the emergency paediatric first aider and will be equipped with the skills needed to deal with a range of paediatric first aid situations, such as performing CPR and controlling external bleeding.
