How to Treat Choking Children at School

When a child who is choking needs urgent attention, trained staff are better placed to recognise the emergency, act safely and arrange further medical help. For school staff, this topic is best linked to ABC Training Services’ Emergency Paediatric First Aid course. The Emergency Paediatric First Aid course focuses on urgent incidents involving children, including unresponsive casualties, CPR, child AED use, choking, bleeding, shock, burns and medical emergencies such as seizures. The training is practical and focused on helping learners build the confidence to respond appropriately in a real incident and provide a clear handover when professional help arrives.
