Paediatric Choking Skills Taught in Basingstoke
Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training, a Windsor-based first aid and fire safety training company, delivers paediatric first aid training at premises in Basingstoke and across five counties. If an adult cannot cough or breathe, give up to five back blows, then up to five abdominal thrusts, and call 999 if it does not clear.
When does choking become an emergency call?
A person who can cough should be urged to keep going. If they cannot cough, speak or breathe, give up to five back blows between the shoulder blades, then move to up to five abdominal thrusts.
Call 999 if it has not cleared after the cycles, and begin CPR should they lose consciousness. Anyone given abdominal thrusts should be checked by a doctor afterwards. Children and babies are treated differently.
Is first aid good for 3 years?
Yes, the certificate is, but the skills fade faster than the paper. Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training recommends a short annual refresher and sends a reminder when first aid at work course in High Wycombe requalification is due.
Does a team with a defibrillator need training?
Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training runs AED and defibrillator training as a half-day session, practised on manikins with a training defibrillator. Delegates learn to recognise cardiac arrest, give good compressions and place the pads safely.
Where you have your own AED, the session can run on that exact model. It is a training session, not a sales visit. A modern AED talks the user through it; training adds speed and calm.
How do I check if my first aid certificate is still valid?
Look at the date on the certificate: an accredited certificate is valid for three years from the date you passed. If the paper has gone missing, ask the provider who issued it for the completion date.
What if a Basingstoke team is larger than one group?
A group of 12 is the normal ceiling for hands-on courses. Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training keeps groups small so everyone gets proper practice time. More people means more sessions, not a bigger room.
First aid is a physical skill, and it is learned by doing it. In a small group everyone practises, including the people who arrived convinced they would be terrible at it. It is the part that decides whether anyone steps forward on the day.
