Emergency First Aid

General first aid courses for all age groups, covering most emergency first aid situations. These courses are almost entirely practical hands on training and are designed to teach people practical skills, which they can use in an emergency situation.

4 hour course teaches students how to deal with an emergency scene, how to asses and prioritise casualties, familiarisation with contents of first aid kit. Students are taught how to carry out CPR (cardio pulmonary resuscitation) and how to deal with major life threatening conditions such as how to care for an unconscious casualty, how to control bleeding, how to recognise and treat a heart attack and the treatment of shock and choking.

1 day course includes all of the topics covered in the 4 hour course, but in far greater detail and allowing more hands on practice. This course includes additional subjects such as the treatment of burns and fractures, recognition and treatment of diabetes and epilepsy, how to treat head and spinal injuries, and an introduction to CPR for infants and young children.
