This course is aimed at teaching you the fundamentals of First Aid and how to deal with Emergency First Aid (Saving lives) and basic First aid in the Work place. This course meets the requirements of the HSE for work places within a Low risk environment, eg. Offices, shops and libraries. Suitable for: Anybody from a small/medium business working in a Low risk environment or candidates from larger companies who are required to support First aiders in the work place.
About this course
No previous knowledge of First Aid is required but candidates must be sufficiently mobile to be able to provide CPR to a casualty who is not breathing. This involves getting up and down from the floor.
You will be required to provide a training room capable of sitting 12 candidates with room for them to break down into groups of 2 or 3 for practical training, which will involve laying down, so the room should be warm and clean.
