Course Overview
Our unique course combines the 1 day Emergency Paediatric First Aid with the 1 day Emergency First Aid at Work courses, providing you with 2 certificates after 1 extended day training. It covers immediate life-threatening situations and managing a emergency regarding babies, infants and children.
This course is for people working with young children and those working towards an Early Years educator qualification. New legislation from the Department of Education requires all newly qualified level two and three child carers to have either an emergency paediatric first aid or full paediatric first aid certificate. The new legislation comes into effect from the 3rd April 2017. It remains a legal requirement for at least one person with a valid full 12-hour paediatric first aid certificate to be available at all times within a professional child care establishment. This includes cover for sickness and annual leave and to accompany children on trips or excursion
