First Aid and CPR Training – Their Importance in a Workplace

By hss-admin | HSS-Blog | 0 comment | 11 May, 2015 | 0

Children are naturally curious and are drawn to new things and experiences. This makes them absorb new ideas fast, like sponges. Unfortunately, this can also make them prone to accidents.

Whether you are a parent, teacher, nanny or any other professional whose job entails caring for young kids, there are plenty of reasons to consider undertaking a paediatric first aid training course.

The most important benefit of undertaking this type of training course is that you will be equipped with all the tools that can help save the life of a child. Apart from actual first aid techniques, such a course can help prepare a person both mentally and emotionally in dealing with a stressful event.

A basic first aid training course is often sufficient for minor injuries like slips and falls. A first aid training course which focuses on young people, on the other hand, will cover other emergency situations.

Among the subjects that may be tackled are the appropriate methods to respond to unresponsiveness, shock, obstructed airways, wounds and bleeding, injuries to the head, neck, back, ears, eyes and nose, weather extremes, poisoning, insect bites, electric shock and allergies.

During emergencies, the first few seconds are deemed to be the most critical and can spell life and death. Properly administering first aid during this critical period increases the survival rate of the victim.

Taking this training also eliminates the guesswork should an emergency arise. Emergency situations often happen when you least expect them and having the knowledge and skills to deal with these stressful events will enable you to remain on top of the situation until the patient receives professional medical help.

For nannies and teachers who want to become more competitive and gain access to more career opportunities, this training course can prove to be beneficial as more and more parents are looking for highly qualified professionals to whom they can entrust the care of their children. First-time parents can also benefit from taking this training course as this adds more skills to their parenting tool kit.

A suitable paediatric first aid course deftly combines theory with practical training, enabling learners to understand the underlying principles and concepts involved and apply these in actual emergency situations.

Such a training course should also be able to address the unique training needs of the learner through the use of the appropriate tools, including training manual and course content that have been crafted based on best practices, international standards and prevailing laws and regulations.
