First aid
First aid can save lives. Responding quickly and correctly can make the difference between a minor incident and a serious situation, especially in the workplace. That’s why a well-organised first aid system is vital for every company.
When an incident occurs in the workplace, it’s essential to respond quickly: if bystanders know what to do, valuable time isn’t wasted. Not every incident is really serious: it might just be a superficial cut or burn, for example. But even then, competent first aid is important.
Relevant training courses
Every first-aider must complete an annual training course. Discover our professional training courses so that your organisation can have a qualified first-aider.
‘Very well presented. Extra questions are always answered, and it’s great to get extra information and examples in addition to the basics, too. The instructor interacts well with the group. I’ve already taken a few first aid courses, but this one was definitely the best!’
