Course Structure and Programme
Our First Aid at Work Training is designed to provide participants with the comprehensive skills and knowledge needed to effectively manage a wide range of workplace emergencies.
This course covers essential first aid techniques, including CPR, treating wounds and fractures, managing shock, and handling various medical conditions. Ideal for employees across all sectors, this training ensures that participants are fully equipped to respond confidently to accidents and injuries in the workplace.
Upon successful completion, attendees will receive a certification that complies with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations, making it a crucial qualification for workplace safety.
All candidates will receive a training pack including a host of resources to help assimilate the knowledge and skills. This includes a course manual, personal resuscitation mask and medical emergencies flow charts to use as an aide-memoire after the course.
Course Overview
This course is suitable for people over 16 yrs of age who work in high hazard environments, such as construction, manufacturing or agriculture. It is also ideal for organisations whose risk assessment identifies a requirement for additional first aid training. (e.g. due to additional risks or employees with specific health needs). This course gives the learners the skills and confidence to respond to a range of accidents and emergencies that could occur in the workplace. In addition, this course covers the use of an automated defibrillator (AED).
On completion of the course, candidates will receive a First Aid At Work certificate that is valid for 3 years. However, for best practice and in line with HSE recommendations, we recommend an annual first aid skills update.
