One Day First Aid Courses - prices from just £40
Our 1 day
programme is composed of two modules; Primary Care (CPR) and
Secondary Care (First Aid). Both of which follow the same priorities of care
used by professional rescuers. The Primary Care (CPR) assumes that local
Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers are in place to support First Aid
Responder care. The Secondary Care (First Aid) assumes that EMS is
delayed or unavailable.
Primary Care (CPR) covers emergency care for most
life threatening emergencies. Participants focus on primary care through
knowledge development, skill development and realistic scenario practice.
The major skills learned are:- Scene Assessment, Barrier Use, Primary
Assessment, Rescue Breathing, One Rescuer Adult Cardiopulmonary
Resuscitation (CPR), Conscious Choking Adult Serious Bleeding Management, Shock Management,
Spinal Injury Management,
Other optional modules include:-
Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Orientation
and Emergency Oxygen Use Orientation.
Secondary Care (First Aid) covers injuries or
illnesses that are not immediately life threatening or when local EMS is
unavailable or delayed. Participants focus on secondary assessments and the
appropriate first aid through knowledge development, skills development and
realistic scenario practice. Skills learned include:- Injury Assessment,
Illness Assessment, Bandaging, Splinting for Dislocations and Fractures
Health and Safety (First Aid) Appointed Person
The HSE recommends that Appointed Persons undergo Emergency First Aid training covering what to do in an emergency, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, first aid for the unconscious casualty and first aid for the wounded or bleeding. The combined Primary and Secondary Care more than meets the Health and Safety Executive Appointed Person First Aid recommendations.
