First Aid for Children

HMB Training is dedicated to teaching children life-saving skills for first-aid emergencies.

Accidents can happen anywhere and at any time, even when there is no adult present or available. Completing a first aid course will help any child gain confidence in knowing what to do in an emergency.

We discuss the significance of dangers and how to stay safe both inside and outside the home. What to do in an emergency and how to summon an ambulance Understanding why someone may stop breathing, performing CPR, and using a defibrillator are all important steps. Understanding why someone may become unconscious and how to place someone in a recovery position Knowing how to treat a bleed and bandage a wound, as well as how to treat minor injuries

Not only does first aid for children benefit others, but a British Red Cross survey found that 97 percent of young people believed first aid training would boost their confidence, skills, and willingness to act in an emergency.

While we fully support the government’s plans to incorporate CPR, defibrillator awareness, and other lifesaving first aid skills into the national curriculum in secondary schools in England, we believe that a child is never too young to begin learning how to save a life and would like to see first aid taught in schools across the country.
