Why New Parents Must Learn Infant CPR and Choking Skills
As a new parent, you do everything you can to protect your baby—researching the best baby gear, childproofing your home, and creating a safe environment. But one skill could truly save your baby’s life: knowing infant CPR and choking first aid.
Emergencies happen unexpectedly, and knowing how to respond could mean the difference between life and death. That’s why NEOwell offers comprehensive Infant CPR and Choking First Aid classes designed to prepare you for these critical moments and help you care for your baby with confidence.
The Reality of Infant Emergencies
Infants are naturally curious and explore the world by putting things in their mouths, making choking one of the most common hazards. Everyday items like food, small toys, or even household objects can pose serious risks. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, choking is a leading cause of injury and death in infants under one year of age.
Cardiac emergencies, though less common, can also occur due to respiratory distress, drowning, or choking. Acting quickly with CPR or choking first aid can make a life-saving difference.
NEOwell’s Infant CPR and Choking First Aid class equips you with the skills and knowledge you need to respond effectively in these high-stakes situations.
