EMERGENCY RESPONSE FIRST AID TRAINING COURSEs

In addition to providing Emergency First Response (EFR) First Aid training courses since 2008, we have been providing First Aid support for over 40 years.

 

Unlike many schools, we specialise in delivering EFR training courses in many professional areas and create bespoke First Aid courses to specifically suit your work environment. We can deliver courses from basic First Aid to enabling your people to become accredited EFR Instructors.

 

We also deliver emergency First Aid training for families and homes.

FIRST AID COURSES FOR GROUPS AND INDIVIDUALS (PRIMARY CPR AND SECONDARY FIRST AID TRAINING)

This 2 day course is suitable for just about anyone who is interested in making a difference in a medical emergency – perhaps even making the difference between someone living or dying. 


It is particularly relevant for small businesses, sports professionals and sports clubs, the hospitality industry, community groups and care homes where first aid certification is required. 


Our main objective is that students leave our course with the confidence to apply these skills learnt in the event of being faced with a life-threatening emergency or other injuries and illnesses.


There are four sections to the course:

  1. Primary Care - learning how to respond to life-threatening emergencies
  2. Secondary Care – dealing with injuries or illnesses that are not life-threatening
  3. Knowledge Reviews 
  4. Final multiple-choice exam.
