Pediatric First Aid Certification

Pediatric First Aid

While first aid skills play a crucial role in any emergency situation, it's particularly important for those who care for children. Children are naturally inquisitive and often get injured or hurt whilst exploring and playing.

When an emergency arises your confidence and first aid knowledge will not only be handy, but it could also even make the difference between life and death.

What You Will Learn:

  • The importance of learning first aid skills and how you can: reduce risks by keeping a fully equipped first aid kit, help the child until the paramedics arrive, and perhaps save his or her life in the process
  • How to clean and dress scrapes and wounds and use the RICE rule to look after a child with sprains or broken bones
  • How to position a child with head injuries correctly, recognize symptoms of concussion, treat different degree burns and help a choking child to breathe again
  • Very importantly, you will also learn how to provide CPR to a child. The course will also teach you how to provide chest compressions, give rescue breaths and how to position a child who is not breathing

Benefits of the Course:

  • The course helps you become familiar with the different types of emergencies that can occur and teaches you to recognize signs of serious situations such as concussion and snake bites
  • Not only will you learn what you should do, but you will also learn about what you shouldn't do to worsen the situation
  • First aid skills training helps you respond correctly, without panic or confusion, in potentially stressful situations

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 4 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Once you have completed all 4 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 4 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

The pass mark for the test is 70%.

If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

You can either use your Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Solo cards or PayPal account to pay for the online course. Our site uses the latest SSL encryption to ensure your safety. All payments are handled securely by PayPal.

You can begin the course immediately after your payment has been received. You will create your login details during the checkout process. We will also send you an email confirming your login details.

We estimate that the course will take about 3 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

This is a fantastic course, it is incredible value for money and it will give you all the information you need to be able to pursue the career of Teaching Assistant.

Being able to do it all in your own time makes it a lot less stressful if you're trying to fit it around work and life in general and the addition of worksheets throughout helps you see which areas need improvement before you take the final test.

I was desperate to get out of my current job but didn't quite have the right skills to move on to another job. I am so glad I chose this course as it has allowed me to gain much needed skills and opened many doors in my career development.

Saffron Gee

Thoroughly enjoying this course. It's great that I can study at my own pace with no time restrictions so I can do a little or a lot each time depending on what time I have available.

So much useful information I will be able to apply not only to landscaping specifically but also to business in general & day to day gardening both personally & professionally.

The chapters are easy to follow, the estimated time helps schedule your time appropriately & the questions at the end of each chapter make sure you have understood correctly.

Highly recommended!

Taking the International Massage Diploma Course at New Skills Academy was my best idea and my best investment in a long time. The flexible timing, professional yet easy understand material helped me to change career (and life) in no time. Absolutely brilliant.

This course was a good introduction to payroll and the content was easy to read and well set out. I would recommend this course to anyone that would like to start out in payroll.

Mark McAuliffe

really enjoyed the course, nice short sections easy to take in the information.

I particularity liked the option to save the pfd and print the material, this allowed me to look back on the information, which was very helpful.

I would recommend this course to others as it gives an understanding to the events industry.

I look forward to using my diploma and put the skills i learnt into practice in a day to day career change. Thanks!
