EMERGENCY FIRST AID FOR BABY & CHILD

Overview

Our Emergency First Aid for Baby and Child training is an onsite course designed for expectant parents, parents, family members and casual babysitters who care for babies and/or children under the age of 10. The 3-hour programme covers a range of first aid theory and practical skills related to the welfare of children and will enable delegates to react better in the case of an emergency.

It is not suitable for those caring for children in a professional capacity. For this, we recommend our 2-day Paediatric First Aid course.

What do I gain with this qualification?

All of our courses ensure that you meet recommendations underlined by the HSE and also provide you with the skills, knowledge and confidence to use what you have learned in a real emergency situation.

How is the course delivered?

Our training is available both in-house and as open courses. Our open courses are great for individual delegates, but if you have a group of people that need training, our in-house courses will be a much more cost-effective option for you… and you won’t even need to travel!
