ANNUAL REFRESHER FIRST AID

Duration  – 1/2 day (3 hours)

This HSE-recommended half-day first aid refresher course refreshes the knowledge previously gained in a First Aid at Work (FAW) or Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) course.

The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) recommends that workers take a first aid refresher course on an annual basis after receiving their 3 year certificates in First Aid at Work or Emergency First Aid at Work.

Aims

This keeps your skills sharp and up to date so you can act with confidence in a first aid emergency. As an employer, it also ensures that you abide to recommended health & safety practices.

With a 3 year gap in-between courses, it can pay to maintain the highest levels of first aid skills which really could mean the difference between life and death in a serious emergency situation.

Course Objectives

Our first aid refresher course is designed to refresh all of the skills found in any standard FAW or EFAW course, including:

• Principles of first aid
• Basic life support (CPR)
• Assessing an emergency situation
• Managing unconscious casualties            
• Managing breathing
• Wounds and external bleeding
• Managing seizures and shock
• Other minor injuries    

Assessment and Certification

This 3 hour course includes course materials, expert tutoring and practical exercises to give learners in-depth training. Upon successful completion of the course, each learner will receive a first aid annual refresher certificate.

On-site and Open Courses

Book an on-site course for up to 12 delegates at your own premises, alternatively book onto one of our open courses. All our course prices include registration, certification and booklet.
