Exigências de RCP e primeiros socorros para creches

First Aid & CPR Rhode Island

Se você trabalha na área de primeira infância em Rhode Island — seja em creche, pré-escola, ambiente familiar ou acampamento — a certificação em primeiros socorros e RCP não é opcional. É uma exigência de licenciamento, e por um bom motivo: crianças estão entre as mais vulneráveis a engasgos, reações alérgicas e lesões. Estar preparado para intervir pode mudar tudo.

O que Rhode Island exige

Rhode Island requires every staff member to be trained under the most recent national resuscitation guidelines in pediatric CPR and in pediatric first aid, under 218-RICR-70-00-1 for child care center licensure. Online training is not accepted for CPR, which must include an in-person, hands-on component, though online delivery is accepted for pediatric first aid. At least one staff member trained in the Heimlich maneuver for infants and toddlers must be on-site at all times, with renewal every two years, under the Department of Human Services / DCYF, Child Care Licensing.

Anafilaxia e administração de medicamentos

Under 218-RICR-70-00-1, prescription and over-the-counter medication requires written parental permission with a prescriber order and storage behind child safety locks, while infants' and toddlers' rescue medications may be kept unlocked but out of reach, and school-age children may self-carry epinephrine with documentation. This keeps a child's autoinjector reachable in an emergency, and it works best alongside an individual allergy action plan and staff trained to recognize anaphylaxis and act immediately.
