Baby/ toddler first-aid for choking - 15 May
Event description
Choking is one of the most common concerns of most parents.
If a child can't breathe, brain damage can begin after just a few minutes, so rapid action is required to save a life, but most parents have mostly adult-based first-aid knowledge and yet little ones are treated differently.
In this live lecture, Steve Lewsen, former ambulance officer and lecturer specialising in babies and toddlers for over 29 years, will explain and demonstrate in detail how to treat a choking child.
Steve knows how to get information across in a manner that leaves parents feeling confident to handle a choking emergency should the need arise and you will be able to ask questions throughout the presentation.
(Steve has been featured on ABC Radio in WA & Victoria, 6PR Radio, 7News, 9News, The West Australian and has personally taught over 50 000 parents over the years).
