HSE First Aid at Work

Every year two million people suffer from injury or illness and 30 million working days are lost to work-related causes. This costs business around £11 billion per year.

An approved Health & Safety First Aid at Work course can significantly lower your company's chance of becoming one of those statistics.

All employers in the UK have a legal obligation to carry out first aid risk assessments and identify the appropriate level of first aid provision for their organisation.

We run 3 Health & Safety First Aid at Work courses:

• One day Appointed Person (8hrs)
• 2 day HSE First Aid at Work Refresher
• 4 day HSE First Aid at Work

At the end of the course all students will be able to:

• Assess and prioritise a first aid incident
• Deal with an unconscious casualty
• Carry out resuscitation (CPR)
• Control bleeding and manage shock
• Deal with injuries to bones, muscles and joints
• Deal with a casualty suffering burns and scalds
• Manage eye injuries
• Deal with casualties overcome by fumes or suffering from poisoning
• Deal with a broad range of common injuries and illnesses until the arrival of medical care
• Maintain records
• Use and maintain first aid kits
