Heart families often tell us how having a child with a heart condition has made them want to learn and improve their First Aid skills.
Learning and knowledge of First Aid skills can make the difference if an accident or emergency situation arises and we are delighted to now offer heart families access to 12 short online video’s setting out the basics in paediatric first aid.
These videos can help you and your family learn vital first aid skills at home and because they are available online you can access them at your own time and review whenever you need to.
These video’s won’t replace the understanding or knowledge you can gain on an accredited first aid course (which we also offer for heart families) but are a great way to familiarise yourself with the basics and improve your confidence whether at home or in the community.
Thanks to The National Lottery for supporting us in delivering this project for heart families in Northern Ireland.
