A pediatric
first aid course is designed to provide individuals with the knowledge and
skills necessary to administer first aid to children and infants in emergency
situations. This course typically covers a range of topics, including basic
life support, choking, bleeding, burns, fractures, and poisoning.
The course
will teach you how to recognize and respond to common childhood emergencies and
how to administer appropriate first aid. Additionally, you will learn how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
on infants and children, how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED),
and how to manage choking in infants and children.
The
duration of the course can vary, but it usually takes around 12 hours to
complete. The course may be offered in person or online, and it may involve
both theoretical and practical training. Upon completion of the course, you
will receive a certification that is valid for a certain period of time
(usually 2-3 years) and can be renewed by taking a refresher course. Having a
pediatric first aid certification can be beneficial for parents, childcare
providers, teachers, and anyone who works with children.
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a training program
designed to teach individuals how to recognize and respond to people
experiencing mental health challenges or crises. The MHFA program is offered
in-person and online, and it is suitable for anyone interested in learning
about mental health and how to support individuals in distress.
The online
course is a self-paced program that covers the same content as the in-person
training. The course typically takes around 8 hours to complete and is broken
down into modules that cover various topics, such as:
1.
Introduction to Mental Health First Aid
2.
Understanding Mental Health and Mental Illness
3. Signs
and Symptoms of Common Mental Health Problems
4. Crisis First Aid for Suicidal

Throughout
the course, participants will learn about the different types of mental health
problems, how to recognize signs and symptoms, how to provide initial support,
and how to connect individuals to appropriate professional help.
Upon
completing the online course, participants will receive a certificate of
completion that is valid for three years. The MHFA program is a valuable
resource for individuals who want to learn how to support others experiencing mental health
challenges, and it is a great way to increase mental health literacy and reduce
the stigma surrounding mental illness.
