First Aid Training

Gain new skills or refresh old ones with Bramble Home Care’s first aid for carers course.

We have drawn on our years of experience to create a first aid training for carers course, using a mix of theory and practice.

Bramble’s first aid for carers course is for those working in home or residential care. Our course is also open to anyone keen to learn or improve their first aid skills.

What is first aid training?

First aid training gives you the skills to manage emergency medical situations before professional help arrives. Imagine how you would feel in this situation without training — nervous and unsure of what to do. Learn these skills on the Bramble Home Care course and develop the confidence to deal with the unexpected.

As a healthcare worker, you need these skills to carry out your role confidently and professionally. They can also save lives or help the person you treat achieve a better outcome.

What's included?

Our First Aid/Basic Life Support Training course lasts five hours.
On it, you will receive a mix of practical and theory training. In order to complete the course and receive your certification, you will need to complete the following training modules during the training:

• CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), including how to use an AED (automated external defibrillator)

• Treating an unconscious casualty and using the recovery position

• How to recognise the signs of choking and treat a choking casualty

• Treating wounds and bleeding, including cleaning and dressing wounds

• Many other first aid scenarios
