Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or guardian, a little information and knowledge about kids can make all the difference!
At St John Ambulance Australia we have designed this course which highlights the key issues and provides essential skills and knowledge for parents and other carers.
It provides practical skills and knowledge on identifying and managing a number of common conditions and injuries in infants and children. It also provides information on how to access referral and advice services that can help to determine the need for medical aid.
