Before you attend a course
Although our trainers will accommodate all, learners attending the course must understand that there will be elements of both mental and practical work included on the course, and that everyone will be expected to participate.
Assessment & Certification
Learners will be continually monitored throughout, and awarded an Emergency First Aid at Work certificate upon completion of the course. The HSE recommend that all First Aiders attend a 3-hour Annual First Aid Refresher course to ensure that they are up-to-date with procedures and to reduce the level of “skills fade”.
This is a great one day training session, intended for individuals who require the Emergency First Aid at Work qualification, but would prefer the role-play / simulated scenarios element, incorporating real challenges, with fake blood!
The real life factor helps the individual realise their potential in a real first aid incident. An Emergency First Aid at Work certificate will be awarded to learners upon completion of the course.
Also see our Emergency First Aid at Work course as an alternative. It covers the same content, but with less fake blood!
Due to the short duration of this course and the practical work involved, this course is delivered in the classroom only.
