It has boost my confidence and also given me lots of information on what to do when a baby under my care is in danger.
By Katherine Ellwood on 6/17/2020
The course was good - CPR - cover baby's mouth and nose with your mouth - but what if you can't do that? In the demo the first aider did not cover the baby's nose.
