Emergency First Response Instructor Update
"Care for Children"

All "Care for Children" - Instructor Updates are conducted on the second day of the EFR Instructor Program. You find those dates if you klick here...

In 2003 PADI reacted to the strong demand of their PADI Members, to release an additional CPR / First Aid Program for Children between 0- 8 years.
This course is especially valuable for diving and non diving families with young children and infants, and/or for people who have frequent contact to children due to their profession or recreational activities.

Emergency First Response Instructors can participate in this Instructor Update and continue their education, to be able to cover "CPR / First Aid" skills for all stage groups in the future.

The following skills are taught for infants and children:

- Primary Assessment - ABCD's
- Choking
- Rescue Breathing
- One-Rescuer-CPR
- Serious Bleedings
- Shock Management
- Spine Injuries
- AED
- Injury - Assessment
- Illness - Assessment
