Would you know what to do if you saw an infant or child in need of first aid? Having a good understanding of emergency paediatric first aid can make all the difference—it could mean the difference between life and death.

The QA Level 3 Award in Emergency Paediatric First Aid (RQF) is designed in line with the current Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements.

Did you know…

Did you know that an estimated 555,000 workers in Britain sustained an injury at work every year?

The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to make arrangements to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work. This includes carrying out a risk assessment, appointing a suitable amount of first aiders and providing appropriate first aid training. However, having the correct first aid provision in the workplace is not just a legal requirement, it is incredibly important for the safety of all members of staff!

The Qualsafe Level 3 Award in Emergency Paediatric First Aid (RQF) qualification has been designed in-line with the current Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements and is ideal for:

Those who have gained a level 2 or 3 childcare qualification and have entered into an early years setting and wish to be included in the staff to child ratios to comply with the EYFS requirements.

  • Anyone who cares for infants and children, such as parents, guardians, grandparents.
  • Successful candidates will be equipped with the skills needed to deal with a range of paediatric first aid situations.
