EmergencycareNI will be delivering Children’s First Aid Workshops (90Mins) throughout N Ireland during the summer.
We have now confirmed dates and venues for the summer scheme first aid children’s workshops. All dates confirmed just a couple of venues to sort out!

The older children’s workshop will be from 1.00 pm – 2.30 pm.
Parents with young children are welcome to sit in the room as long as they sit at the back so not to distract their child!!
Children will be taught an assortment of not just first aid skills, but home safety too.
Course content will include the following:
- How to assist a choking baby/child/adult.
- When to call 999 and the reason for doing this.
- How to put a person into the safe airway position.
- CPR on a child friendly Flat Stan Manikins!

We will stop for a 5 minute toilet break throughout their workshop.
