Paediatric first aid

The University nurseries currently hold in-house training with two qualified first aid instructors, who are able to offer the training when required. This ensures that the staff team consistently stay up to date and knowledgeable. Training is held regularly, usually every other month, and involves 2 days of training.

Recently training has also been offered to agency staff from Kidstaff and Eyears, to share good practice with fellow practitioners, and enable more staff to offer their support to the nurseries.
