Updated CPR/Pediatric First Aid Requirements

In compliance with federal requirements, on September 30, 2021, Louisiana began monitoring that staff at all licensed child care centers have current certification in CPR/Pediatric First Aid through training approved by LDOE. This is a change from previous rules, which required only 50%  of staff members to have current certification.

The Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) – Division of Licensing is assisting licensed providers and Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) certified family home and  in‐home providers with obtaining CPR/Pediatric First Aid for their staff for free or at minimal cost. Click below to  find a list of CPR/Pediatric First Aid vendors that are approved to be paid by LDOE.
