These are the requirements of the Health and Safety Executive.  Other topics covered will relate to the requirements of the delegates, e.g. applicable to their workplace, and will also depend on time available. For example, those involved in construction may need to know about head injuries and trips and falls. If there are specific requirements for the course you will be running then this First Aid course can be “Tailored” to suit your needs.

This course has continuous assessment by the trainer to evaluate delegates. At the end of the course the delegates will receive an Emergency First Aid at Work certificate which is valid for three years. 

The Health & Safety Executive strongly recommends that all delegates carry out a three hour update session annually to maintain skill levels.
