New combined course for your setting's First Aider:  12 Hour Paediatric First Aid & Emergency First Aid at Work course
start content


All childcare providers in Conwy are offered the opportunity to attend our 12 hour Paediatric First Aid courses, however this new course includes the additional requirement for the nominated First Aider to obtain the Emergency at Work First Aid Certificate.  One course, two certificates.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) states that “Employers must make sure employees get immediate help if taken ill or injured at work”. 

 

The Paediatric First Aid course is primarily designed for those who are responsible for children under the age of 12.  The training is 12 hours and meets the requirements needed by CIW for registered settings in Wales.

Following this course you will:

  • Understand the role and responsibilities of the Paediatric First Aider
  • Be able to provide first aid for an infant and a child
  • Understand how to recognise signs and symptoms, administer emergency first aid to an infant and a child with a chronic medical condition or sudden illness
  • Understand how to recognise signs and symptoms, administer emergency first aid to an infant and a child

COVID-19 precautions:

  • Safely deliver CPR without the need for mouth to mouth resuscitation by using a Bag Valve Mask (BVM)
  • Safe disposal of contaminated waste

 

The Emergency First Aid at Work extra elements to qualify you for the extra certificate include:

  • Understanding how the heart works
  • Difference between angina and heart attack
  • History, signs, symptoms and treatment of a heart attack (up to 30 mins)
  • Understanding what a stroke is in the brain
  • The 2 different types of stroke
  • History, signs, symptoms and treatment of a stroke (up to 30 mins)

 

Participants must be physically able to perform the CPR element. Failure to perform this under HSE (Health & Safety Executive) will not count towards a qualified first aider at the site as standards fall short of what is expected for a first aider and will not receive a certificate.

The cost for the two days is £75.

Payment is required upon booking.  For further information on how to make a payment please call 01492 577862.

Please also note that non-attendance or late cancellation will incur an additional cost of £20.
