The qualification covers knowledge such as the roles and responsibilities of the first aider and how to assess an incident. It also covers first aid skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use of an automated external defibrillator (AED), providing first aid ton a casualty who is choking and dealing with external bleeding and hypovolaemic shock, and how to provide first aid for minor injuries.
