Description
As a requirement of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations, all places of work must provide adequate equipment, facilities, and people to ensure they can react appropriately to injury or illness. The individual meaning of this is dependent upon the outcome of a business’ risk assessment, which outlines whether they need a First Aider, Emergency First Aider, or Appointed Person in the workplace.
This one-day course offers a combination of practical and theoretical learning, allowing delegates to develop the necessary skills to react to workplace emergencies. Consequently, they will be recognised as an Emergency First Aider, meaning the requirement for this in the risk assessment can be fulfilled.
With an interactive approach, this course encourages a confident application of knowledge in real-life situations, equipping Emergency First Aiders with the ability to respond to potentially-life threatening incidents. Once awarded, the Emergency First Aider qualification lasts for three years, after which it is recommended that the course is retaken.
