Choking, Babies and Children: Paediatric First Aid in Basingstoke
Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training, a Windsor-based first aid and fire safety training company, delivers paediatric first aid training at premises in Basingstoke and across five counties. If an adult cannot cough or breathe, give up to five back blows, then up to five abdominal thrusts, and call 999 if it does not clear.
What should you do when an adult is choking?
While they can still cough, let them, and encourage it. If coughing fails, lean them forward and give up to five back blows between the shoulder blades, then up to five abdominal thrusts.
Call 999 if it has not cleared after the cycles, and move to CPR if they stop responding. Anyone given abdominal thrusts should be checked by a doctor afterwards. Infants and children need different techniques.
Is first aid good for 3 years?
Yes, the certificate is, but the skills fade faster than the paper. Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training recommends a short annual refresher and sends a reminder when requalification is due.
What happens on AED and defibrillator training?
Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training runs AED and defibrillator training as a half-day session, using manikins and a training unit. The content is cardiac Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training Oxford arrest recognition, CPR and safe pad placement.
Where you have your own AED, the session can run on that exact model. This is training, not equipment sales. A modern AED talks the user through it; training adds speed and calm.
How do I check if my first aid certificate is still valid?
Look at the date on the certificate: an accredited certificate is valid for three years from the date you passed. If you have lost it, the training provider that issued it can confirm the date.
Why keep first aid groups small?
A group of 12 is the normal ceiling for hands-on courses. Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training keeps numbers down so nobody sits at the back watching. Where a team is bigger, additional sessions are run.
First aid is a physical skill, and it is learned by doing it. Small numbers mean the nervous delegate gets as many turns as the confident one. It is the part that decides whether anyone steps forward on the day.
Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training brings its trainers, manikins and kit to workplaces in Basingstoke and the surrounding counties. Ring 07771 680794 to arrange paediatric first aid training; a person answers, not a queue.
