Does it protect people who know first aid but never took the course to get the certificate or whatever? and like isnt a paramedic or doctor or anything?

Kmon asked:

The kids’ ages range from 4 to 10. We live in Phoenix, Arizona so I would like it focused on things such as dehydration, sun burn, snake or insect bites.

What is basic first aid for a baby who was stung by a scorpion?

Sunday, September 13th, 2009

tngirl8705 asked:

We are moving to AZ, and I must admit I’m just a little scared of the scorpions. We have a young infant (3 months) and I’m a little nervous about them being around him. If he should get stung, what is the best thing to do? I have searched the internet, and can’t seem to find much of anything. Any help? I know to put his crib legs in jars of water, but I”m worried about him crawling around and accidentally finding one.
