Pet First Aid - May 6, 2012 - Certificate Course
This veterinarian-approved, certificate course is recommended for all Pet Lovers, yet is comprehensive enough to provide Pet Care Professionals the needed tools to safely care for other people’s pets, and to know what to do, should their pet become ill or injured.
You Will Learn:
- The importance of preventative care, how to know what is "normal" for your pet
- What you can do to avoid illnesses and injuries
- How to recognize and manage all types of injuries - bleeding, bone fractures, contusions, scrapes, punctures, lacerations, strains and sprains
- How to recognize and manage medical conditions/potential emergencies - seizures, diabetes, heat exhaustion, hypothermia, bloat, shock, poisoning, parasites; breathing emergencies such as choking, and how to perform artificial respiration and CPR
- How to properly restrain and stabilize an injured pet until qualified veterinary care can be obtained
You will practice bandaging, and other techniques on stuffed toy animals, as well as on live animals
Be there when your pet needs you! Feel confident that you will know what to do, should the time ever come!
