Questions and answers
Will this allow me to become a qualified first aided in a workplace?
Answer:To be a qualified First Aider in the workplace you would usually need to do Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work (blended or classroom), however this may meet your company's HSE risk assessment. An Appointed Person deputises for the first aider and is in charge of first aid arrangements. This includes looking after the equipment, facilities and calling the emergency services.
