Emergency Paediatric First Aid Course Overview
Emergency Paediatric First Aid – This Level 3 Award is designed for those who would like to become qualified in administering Emergency Paediatric First Aid to children and infants, specifically infants under the age of 1 and children from the age of 1 up until the onset of puberty.
If you have a professional interest, i.e. you are a child-minder or school teacher, etc, then this course partly fulfils the requirements of Ofsted and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Ofsted and the Early Years Foundation Stage require you to have 12 hours of Paediatric First Aid training, so our 2-Day Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid would be required to fulfil their requirements. This 6 hour qualification also makes up the first half of the 12-hour course.
