Emergency First Aid at Work
1 Day - £80
This course is designed to give you the knowledge that could one day save someones life. The inital few minutes of a patients collapse are the most critical and if acted upon can have the most effect.
This course is ideal for the smaller, lower risk compaines (eg: shops and offfices) or where your needs assessment identifies a requirement for a first aider trained in emergency first aid at work.
If your assessment identifies additional hazards or staff with medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes type I & II or a heart conditions and you want to know to a deeper level, we recommend the First Aid at Work course as this covers a broader syllabus including the recognition and treatment of a wider range of conditions.
