No matter how careful you are, kids get hurt. The National Safety Council can help you handle, the usual bumps and bruises, as well as more serious injuries and sudden illnesses. And because no one wants to see children get hurt in the first place, you will get tips on preventing injuries.
The NSC's pediatric emergency care programs were the first to focus specifically on how injuries affect babies and young children. The updated curriculum assures that you are learning the latest emergency care techniques. The program meets first aid and CPR certification requirements for all 50 states and conforms to the latest guidelines for CPR.
