First Aid and Safety for New Parents

This class begins with a video-based safety tour of your home that will help you to prevent injury by identifying common danger areas. Then we discuss common safety devices (i.e. locks and gates) and where to locate these items. Problem areas in your yard and protecting children at play are also reviewed.The second part of the course is dedicated to common injuries and appropriate first aid, along with a discussion of more serious injuries and treatments. Instructors will demonstrate and, where appropriate, let the class members participate in first-aid techniques. This class meets on one night from 6:30 to 9 p.m. 
Please note: CPR is NOT taught in this class. 
Cost: $40 per person or $70 per couple (must call 781-756-4700 for couples rate)
