What are the topics in child safety and first aid training?

The current common children's safety and first aid training questions basically cover the three major directions of daily risk identification, emergency response, and practical operation standards. They range from paper-and-pencil answers to simulated operations. There are almost no purely theoretical tests that are too biased. Most of them are scenarios that ordinary people can encounter when raising children.

I have been doing public welfare training for children's first aid for 6 years. When I came out of the exam, the first criterion I got stuck on was "Can I save a life if I learned the knowledge points of this question?" For example, the most frequently asked scene judgment question will show a photo of an ordinary living room: there are unpacked adult pills and freshly served hot porridge on the coffee table, and the socket beside the table is not installed with safety. There is half a button battery exposed in the seam of the sofa. The baby who has just learned to walk is running barefoot on the matted floor. How many potential safety hazards are there? Parents who participated in the training in previous years could only find at least 2 and the most 6. This kind of question does not need to be memorized by rote. It tests the safety sensitivity of daily care of children. Occasionally, there will be some questions that poke at cognitive blind spots, such as "The first step after a child is stung by a bee is to squeeze the venom or remove the sting." Eight out of ten people will choose to squeeze. In fact, this is wrong. Squeezing will squeeze the remaining venom into the blood circulation. The correct way is to use a card or hard plastic piece to scrape out the stinger, which is specially used to correct common misunderstandings.

Of course, there are a lot of debates in the industry about the setting of questions. For example, whether to include "differences in the Heimlich maneuver among children of different ages" as a required practical question. Many safety teachers in kindergartens think it is unnecessary. Ordinary parents panic when learning, and then ask them to memorize back pats and chest thrusts for those under 1 year old, and abdominal thrusts for those over 1 year old. If the memorization is mixed up, accidents are likely to happen. , it would be better to just take the core test of "Don't feed water, pat the back, and find the right position to exert force at the first time." However, most of us trainers with a background in pediatric emergency medicine insist on taking the test. Last year, a parent treated a 7-month-old baby who was choking on milk and used the force of an adult Heimlich to directly crush two ribs. If this little operational detail is missed, the consequences will be really different.

Nowadays, serious training will not only test paper and pencil, but practical exercises will account for at least half of the points. For example, you will be given a simulated person with the same weight and bone hardness as a real baby, and the setting scenario is "a 2-year-old baby choked on eating peanuts, and now his face is blue and purple, and he can't cry." You have to call for help, judge airway obstruction, and operate The strength and position of the operation were improved step by step. Last year, there was a student whose movements were all on point, but he forgot to call the person next to him to call 120 immediately. In the end, he failed by 2 points. In an emergency, you can't just save people by yourself, you have to find a backup plan to find professional medical care. This awareness is more important than the operation itself.

Occasionally there will be some open questions with no standard answers, such as "What safety preparations will you make in advance when taking your 3-year-old to a crowded amusement park on weekends?" Some people answered that they would bring a rope to prevent loss and a badge with contact information written on it. Some people said that they should teach the child in advance if parents cannot find a uniformed staff member. Some people said that they would take a full-body photo of the child in advance for the day. It is more intuitive when showing it to the staff. There is no right or wrong in this kind of question, it just depends on whether you have thought carefully enough.

To put it bluntly, these questions are never meant to defeat anyone. They are all accumulated from pitfalls that have been stepped on before and real accidents that have been seen. If you can answer these questions correctly, at least you will not panic and act blindly when you encounter trouble.
