This module is designed for officers or police staff working in medium to high risk areas where the operational plan requires a higher level of first aid than the emergency first aider can provide. This module is the First Aider at Work (FAW) Standard equivalent to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). It focuses on the level of first aid identified by the HSE as the acceptable level for medium to high risk work environments and operational duties.
The learning addresses basic principles of first aid and deals with a wide range of medical situations that personnel may be expected to deal with. It addresses the same content as Module 2, but then develops on this further by adding more complex medical and trauma skills. Annual refresher training is required.
Due to the nature of this course and the practical work involved, this course is delivered in the classroom only.
