Most definitely! I am based in the United States, so I reference recommendations from different American associations. There may be some little differences between the recommendations from the United States and other countries

This course will not provide a formal CPR certification. To receive a recognized CPR certification from the American Heart Association, a 3-4 hour course is required that includes an in-person component and exam. Child health safety course is intended for parents and caregivers who want to learn what to do in emergency scenarios, but do not require proof of CPR certification.

Can this course help with older children and adult health safety?

Absolutely! Although I created this course focused from birth through 10years old but a lot of the content and skills can be helpful for children older than 10 years old and adults so a great bonus for you!
