The Paediatric First Aid course looks at every medical situation from treating minor cuts and grazes, to performing CPR on an unresponsive infant. By the end of the Paediatric First Aid course, you'll know how to interact with a young casualty, how to keep them calm, and when to call an emergency.

We also examine the uses of an AED and what role it can play in the resuscitation of a child. Module 04: Common Illnesses, Injuries and Incidents In Paediatric First Aid Module Four, we run through the symptoms, causes and treatments of the most common ailments that can affect a child. This includes all-too-frequent occurrences like stings and burns, along with life-affecting conditions such as Diabetes and Anaphylaxis.
