About Us – Fast Response PFA Ltd
Fast Response PFA Ltd (launched in 2009 and became Ltd in 2012) is based in Newbury, Berkshire and is committed to delivering high quality First Aid Training, (which is a requirement under The Health and Safety First Aid regulations 1981) and other workplace courses such as Health and Safety, Food Hygiene, Manual Handling, Fire Safety and Health and Social Care.
We also offer Paediatric First Aid Training Courses (in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework and Ofsted guidelines) through theory and practical sessions in a very professional but relaxed environment.
We pride ourselves in making First Aid easy; giving the candidates the confidence required should they ever find themselves in the daunting position of having to use Emergency First Aid skills.
Our courses can be delivered non-accredited or QA (RQF) Level 3 where appropriate.
Our launch as a Workplace Training provider was in September 2009 covering the county of Berkshire and due to gaining an excellent reputation in our area, we are now offering all our workplace courses throughout the rest of the UK.
Our Instructors are fully qualified to a very high standard with a wealth of knowledge and background and courses are accredited where applicable.
From the 1st October 2013, the HSE (Health & Safety Executive) no longer approves first aid training. Organisations must therefore assess their own first aid requirements based on the HSE guidelines and ensure their first aid training provider has quality assurance that meet these requirements. We have you covered.
Fast Response PFA Ltd is a registered Qualsafe Awards Centre and also registered with The First Aid Industry Body, therefore approved to deliver accredited or non – accredited courses that meet those guidelines. Our Paediatric First Aid courses also meet EYFS and Ofsted guidelines.
Our Training Courses can be in-house, or a venue can be sought in your surrounding area if it cannot be held on your premises. We can also deliver Paediatric First Aid to parents in the comfort of your own home.
All our First Aid Training courses can be delivered either in the traditionally manner of face to face training or a blended online version which meet all the above guidelines.
*An additional cost may be charged if an alternative venue is to be booked. Travel costs may apply (depending on location).
Our Infection Control courses are designed to be compatible with any industry, where there is a requirement for training for employees that are likely to be exposed to blood & other bodily fluids.
The objective of this infection control course is to underpin knowledge of how to prevent and control the spread of infection.
This module addresses the current infection prevention and control agenda and the factors that contribute to the development of Healthcare Associated Infection.
