IBU Penang: Paediatric First Aid & CPR Course

Whether it's a simple bruise or a life-threatening blocked airway, no parent wants to see their child injured or at risk. Having the knowledge and ability to respond to emergencies could make all the difference during those first few crucial seconds and minutes. 

Don't miss out on this awesome hands-on training course that empowers you to take action confidently in a medical emergency involving children. Amongst other topics, parents will learn how to perform CPR on a child and how to handle a situation where the child is choking. (Psst, this is especially useful if your child is about to embark on solids soon or is in the toddler years!) 

This course is conducted by St. John Ambulance Penang's team of experienced medics. Medical health professionals will also be present to answer your questions and facilitate the training.
