When it comes to first aid, it's important to know how to treat both kids and adults. That's why, in our Ridgewood first aid classes, we'll review the procedures for caring for adults separately from those that are applicable to kids. By doing so, our instructors make it easy to understand the differences when providing care so that you can help each person according to his or her needs.

Because children and infants require special care during times of crisis, our first aid classes in Ridgewood include detailed information on helping kids who are sick or injured. This way, you can provide children with the care they need in a way that won't cause further damage to their growing bodies.
