Elemental First Aid

Come say hi at Rona in Carleton Place until 3 pm!

🚑❤️ Parents! Imagine your child being the one who stays calm, knows what to do, and can help when an emergency happens. Would your child be ready?

We are currently gauging interest in a Kids-Only Emergency First Aid & CPR-C Course (with AED skills) coming to the Carleton Place, Smiths Falls and the Pakenham/Almonte area. This will be a WSIB approved First Aid and CPR Training and open to children and youth 10-14 years old.

This course is designed specifically for children so they can learn life-saving skills in a safe, supportive environment alongside their peers.

👉 This would be a two full-day, in-person course focused on engaging, hands-on, in-depth learning and limited to 12 participants to ensure ongoing 1-on-1 instruction and feedback from our experienced instructors.

Kids will practice and learn:

✅ Bandaging and wrapping techniques
✅ Managing burns, scrapes, bruises, and cuts
✅ Recognizing medical emergencies
✅ How and when to call 911
✅ Emergency First Aid & CPR skills (including AED awareness)
✅ Building confidence, responsibility, and leadership in emergencies

The training follows Emergency First Aid standards while being structured specifically for young learners.

🧒 Kids-only environment means no adult participants, allowing children to learn comfortably, ask questions freely, and build confidence together.

📚 Structured similarly to a school setting with two in-person days (6-hour learning blocks instead of traditional 8-hour adult courses) to keep learning engaging and age-appropriate.

💬 We are currently building an interest list before confirming dates.

👉 Comment “INTERESTED” below if you would consider registering your child or ask any questions you may have about the program.

We will reach out via direct message to everyone who comments to collect contact information and add you to the interest list.

Please share with other parents who may want their child to learn real-world skills that could truly make a difference ❤️.
