Pediatric CPR/First Aid

Accidental injuries are the leading health problem in children over the age of one year. The National Safety Council's Pediatric First Aid and CPR program is designed to help prepare individuals for such incidents. This program provides the most comprehensive training program content for first aid for injuries and illnesses commonly seen in early childhood years. The program also includes the latest CPR guidelines to cover basic life support techniques for rescue breathing, CPR, and choking emergencies for infants and children.

These NSC training programs provide participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to help save the life of a child or infant. Written to “keep it simple,” participants learn to prevent, recognize and provide care for both life-threatening and common conditions affecting children.

What supplies should you keep in a first aid kit?

The National Safety Council recommends that you include these items in your home and car:

  • First aid manual
  • Emergency telephone numbers
  • List of allergies and medications for each family member
  • Antibiotic ointment
  • Acetaminophen, ibuprofen and aspirin
  • Syrup of ipecac
  • Bandages and gauze of assorted sizes and roller gauze bandages
  • CPR barrier devices
  • Medical exam gloves
  • Elastic wraps
  • Adhesive tape
  • Antiseptic wipes
  • Cold packs for icing injuries
  • Thermometer, tweezers and small scissors

Also keep a list of emergency numbers near the telephone for police, fire and ambulance service (9-1-1), the regional poison control center, and family physicians and pediatricians. Prevention is the single most important aspect of first aid. Being prepared is also important. Take a first aid class and learn CPR. Someday, you may be the one to save a person's life. Lives are lost daily nationwide from incidents involving heart attack, drowning, choking or electric shock. The steps taken to aid the victim seconds following such an incident can mean the difference between life and death. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the best training to have to try to help someone in an extreme situation when that person has stopped breathing and their circulation has stopped. Learning this basic first-aid technique can help you give a friend, a loved one or a stranger a second chance for life.
