Emergency First Aid At Work

The Emergency First Aid at Work Course helps to meet regulatory requirements if your organisation’s risk assessment has indicated that first aid training for emergency protocols only is sufficient for your workplace. If you require staff members to be trained to recognise a wider range of injuries and medical conditions, then the First Aid at Work Course may be more suitable.

WHO IS THE EMERGENCY FIRST AID AT WORK COURSE FOR?

The emergency first aid at work course is designed for a member of an organisation who finds themselves in charge or appointed to take charge of first aid equipment during a first aid emergency in the event that a qualified first aider is absent.
