Mini Medics - Basic First Aid for Children
Non-Regulated Certification of Attendance
Includes full colour Certificate and Mini Medic Pamphlet
Objective
This is a very basic introduction to First Aid for all children and aimed at children between the ages of 8 and 11, but it can suit children of any age.
First Aid is an important life skill and the course is kept at a basic level with no use of confusing terminologies. At the very least, the child will be able to make an effective emergency telephone call which may be enough to save someone’s life.
The course will show complete respect for the child’s ability, make it educational and practical, and instil the importance of helping someone who is poorly or injured.
Who should attend?
Suitable for anyone who feels their child or those in proximity of their child would benefit from basic First Aid skills
