J. Res. Pharm. Sci., 10(4), 3600-3607Children daycare centres have nowadays become a necessity due to the guardians’ job constraint in this modern globalization era. Increasing demand of daycare centres showed ramiϑication on unintentional injuries at the childcare settings. The incidence is becoming more common and this may lead to a lawsuit for negligence. Failure to provide proper ϑirst aid response is one of the issues faced by the caregivers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the ϑirst study investigating the effects of ϑirst aid training and certiϑication on knowledge, attitude and conϑidence (KAC) among childcare providers in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. A self-administered questionnaire was given to 54 Negeri Sembilan childcare providers before and after they received a comprehensive module on the ϑirst aid training. The training comprised of three major components; basic life support, trauma injuries and non-trauma injuries. Throughout the training, participants were given a series of lectures, hands-on practicals and small group discussion on speciϑied topics from the module. Overall results showed a signiϑicant increase in knowledge, attitude and conϑidence (p<0.001) after the respondents’ had received the FAT4CP© training. The ϑirst aid training provided to the childcare providers was found effective and had successfully improved their knowledge by 12.5% and their conϑidence to perform ϑirst aid increased by 20.0%. They are now more prepared and efϑicient at handling any emergency situations at childcare centres. Our results suggested that FAT4CP© training programme was able to increase knowledge, attitude and conϑidence of childcare providers in Negeri Sembilan to handle emergency cases. Therefore, the programme is suggested to be implemented at all childcare centres in order to improve and sustain the providers’ abilities in handling emergency situations.enBasic life support,Childcare,Emergency,First aid,Trauma injuriesArticle36003607104
