Our Child Development Class at Northwood School had an amazing opportunity to team up with Sage from Hunt Hill Audubon Sanctuary to learn how to recognize and respond to various first aid emergencies. Over eight 45-minute sessions, students practiced CPR on infant and youth manikins, learned how to assist someone who is choking, and became proficient in using the AED. They also gained valuable skills in administering First Aid.
At the conclusion of the program, each student took a 40-question test and needed to earn at least 80% to pass. Congratulations to these students for earning their Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certification. It was truly a fantastic experience!
