First Aid Workshops for Parents & Grandparents
Would you know what to do if your child suffered a medical emergency?
Would you know what to do if your child suffered a medical emergency?
Most parents have no or little first aid knowledge, or the knowledge they have is out of date, education is key to the safety of all of us.
As a parent we are not given a “parent guide” when children are born. On the whole we consider our homes as safe places which they are, however accidents usually happen in or around the home.
More than two million children under the age of 15 experience accidents in and around the home every year and are taken to hospital. Many more are treated by GPs and by parents and carers.
On average 62 children under the age of five died as a result of an accident and over 76.000 under the age of 14 are admitted for treatment of which over 40% are under 5 years of age. Those most at risk from a home accident are the 0-4 years age group.
Children can swallow, inhale or choke on items such as small toys, peanuts and marbles. Babies and small children are most at risk from choking because they examine things around them by putting them in their mouths.
Prevention is better than cure, which is why at Willhan training we have developed a “bespoke “ parent and grandparent first aid workshop for any parent/ grandparent to attend.
The feedback from our parents and grandparents who have attended has be amazing.
Our first aid workshops designed for parents, grandparents or anyone who cares for young family members will give you the confidence & knowledge to save a life.
This short 3 hour “hands on” workshop will provide you with skills & knowledge to help in a range of medical emergency situations.
Ranging from :- What to do if your baby or child is choking, the importance of getting help early, baby & child recovery position & what to do if a child is unresponsive & not breathing & knowing how to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Why not gain new or refresh existing skills in a relaxed, friendly environment with other parents, grandparents.

Thoroughly enjoyed our First Aid at Work. It was very informative in a very relaxed atmosphere. Our trainer Louise Vickers explained everything very clearly and if you didn't understand she would go over it again in a way that you didn't feel embarrassed for asking.

What a brilliant course. Louise is a fabulous teacher and has endless patience, she will explain things in a way that makes it seem easy and even the silliest questions are answered without making you feel silly.

Fantastic course with Louise in Tamworth, she really ensured everyone understood each topic before moving on to the next and made it fun whilst being informative.

Our staff were very pleased with the training offered, they said Louise was very professional and she taught them things they hadn't learnt from a previous course with St Johns Ambulance.
