This course includes: assessing an incident, managing an unresponsive casualty, CPR, heart attacks, choking, head and spinal injuries, fractures, anaphylaxis and more.
What is a First Aid at Work Course?
To meet the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, employers must provide adequate and appropriate equipment, facilities and people to ensure employees receive the right care if injured in the workplace. This includes appointing the minimum number of first aiders per employee count, and providing them with the latest first aid training.
In order to determine what level of training your first aiders need, you will first need to carry out a first aid needs assessment. While the 1 Day First Aid Course is the minimum requirement for some workplaces, our 3 Day First Aid Course is designed for higher risk environments.

This is a regulated and nationally recognised qualification, with the potential of progression. For instance, the award may be used towards other qualifications at the same or a higher level.
Importance of First Aid Training
In addition to being a legal requirement, first aid training also helps to save lives and support healthcare workers during medical emergencies, such as illness or injuries that happen in the workplace.
Our First Aid at Work 3 Day Course not only ensures that first aiders have the right skills and knowledge to act quickly, but confidence is key – the training helps first aiders respond confidently to a range of emergency situations.
