LIFE-SAVING FIRST AID WHEN YOU NEED IT

Children are curious by nature and explore the world around them with great energy. Most of the time all goes well, but sometimes they get hurt and may need someone standing by who knows how to give first aid.

This book is meant for parents, grandparents, teachers and anyone else who deals with children. It takes you step by step through the basics about first aid, and offers a simple guide on how to give life-saving help. You can also learn about how to help a child with minor injuries, and how to prevent accidents and ensure safety at home.

Easy to understand and richly illustrated, the book provides instant and comprehensible information and advice when needed.

FIRST AID FOR BABIES & CHILDREN is written in collaboration with the Danish Red Cross society. It follows The European Resuscitation Council Guidelines (ERC 2005), and contains the latest knowledge about first aid.
