Baby and Child BLS (e-Learning)

Did you know that early resuscitation can improve survival rates by up to 60%?

Maintaining oxygen to the brain and heart does not just save a life, but also helps avoid brain damage…transforming the life of a little one!

Whatever your role: parent, neighbour, friend or professional such as schoolteacher or child minder, this course will give you vital skills that could help preserve or restore life to an infant or young child. As a first responder, early delivery of CPR has been shown through medical research to make all the difference in the world!

This course will help you to develop life-saving skills which can keep a person alive until professional help arrives. These skills include safe assessment of the collapsed individual, dealing with a choking baby or child, effective airway management (‘keeping the breathing passageways open’), and how to competently perform CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) if necessary.
