Course overview

This short, yet practical course is designed to equip delegates with essential life saving skills. It provides a brief introduction to First Aid, and can be adapted as required, for example, covering the treatment of fractures for skateboarders.

Who is it for?

This course is suitable for delegates who have no previous knowledge of First Aid but who would benefit from basic training such as babysitters, carers and young people.

Topics covered

• Casualty Assessment
• Unconsciousness
• CPR
• Wounds and Bleeding
• Client specific areas such as choking, epilepsy and diabetes can be included

Course Objectives

The delegate will have the opportunity to participate in practical exercises illustrating how to give emergency First Aid to a casualty until medical assistance arrives.

Assessment

There is no formal assessment but each delegate will receive a certificate of attendance.

Duration

2-3 hours (normally ½ day)

This course can be run in-house for up to 15 delegates
