1 Or 2 day Paediatric First Aid
On your course we will also cover Adult Resuscitation. You may be with friends, family or at a Nursery or School where an adult may need caring for.
Ofsted do not currently stipulate the course duration for Paediatric First Aid courses for Nannies, etc.
The HSE do not govern this 1 day course, hence there is not set maximum number of delegates. We set a maximum of 16 delegates as they can easily be supervised each working on their own mannequin.
