Child CPR Certification

According to the American Heart Association's guidelines Child CPR can be administered to any victim under the age of eight. The first thing to remember about Child CPR is that in children cardiac arrest is rarely caused by heart failure but rather by an injury such as acute poisoning, smoke inhalation, or even head trauma, which makes the breathing stop first. And since children are more resilient and flexible than adults - statistics have shown that they tend to respond to CPR much better if administered as soon as possible.

If you are a certified infant and child CPR parent, it is advisable for you to ask your childcare provider, your partner and even your child's grandparents to take the certification classes. It is essential for any adult who has contact with your infant or child needs to be able to perform CPR in case of an emergency. Also remember to renew your certification as recommended by your instructor. The program will enable you to handle circumstances like scene assessment & barriers, primary & injury assessment, choking management, control of bleeding, shock management, diabetic emergencies, illness assessment, respiratory problems, etc.
