Annual Refresher Course for First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders - 3 hours
In line with the Health & Safety Executive code of practice.
Although it is not mandatory, the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) strongly recommend that qualified First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders undertake an annual refresher course to keep their skills up-to-date and refreshed.
This three-hour annual refresher course has been designed to meet that requirement and will help First Aiders to maintain their skills and knowledge whilst also keeping up to date with any changes to protocols.
The training enhances individual readiness, ultimately contributing to creating a safer workplace environment. By empowering individuals with the ability to take decisive action, this course plays a crucial role in potentially saving lives in emergency situations.
This refresher course equips participants with vital first aid skills, including assessing situations, administering CPR, and managing various medical emergencies. By fostering a confident response capability, organisations can ensure a safer workplace and enhance overall employee well-being.
