Do you ever watch over a young child? Would you be able to provide emergency care if needed? Barton’s Early Childhood and Emergency Medical Services Programs want to make sure people can provide emergency care if required and are offering an Infant and Toddler CPR & First Aid Course from 1-5 p.m. Sept. 15 in the Technical Building, Room T-147. Adult CPR will also be taught.
The course will cover:
• CPR/choking for the child and infant
• Common Medical Emergencies in the child and infant (asthma, seizures, croup, and allergic reactions)
• Stopping bleeding
• Basics of stabilization of injuries in the first 10 minutes
The course is $20 and only cash will be accepted.
