The Emergency Paediatric First Aid (EPFA) course is a one day first aid qualification that covers a range of CPR and emergency first aid skills specifically for children and infants (babies).   

The Emergency Paediatric First Aid course is for anyone over 16 who has contact with children and infants. Upon completion of the course, candidates receive a nationally recognised Level 3 Emergency Paediatric First Aid qualification which is valid for 3 years.  

Paediatric first-aid training equips adults with essential skills to respond effectively to medical emergencies involving children. The training covers critical areas such as CPR, choking, allergic reactions, and injury management, ensuring that colleagues can act swiftly and confidently in high-pressure situations. These competencies are vital for safeguarding the health and well-being of pupils. 

Beyond emergency response, the training emphasises prevention and risk assessment, helping colleagues create safer environments for children. The training is offered by a qualified first responder (NHS) and meets the expectations for certification.
