Overview
Are you aware your work environment can present an entire range of risks to both staff and customers?
Accidents, injuries and illnesses can occur at any time. Although the risk is higher in certain industries, accidents can happen anywhere and in any workplace. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the basic first aid procedures, so that you can act quickly in an emergency. First aid is an action taken in response to an emergency to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening and to promote recovery. The course will equip you with the essential knowledge to maintain a safe working environment and take the correct action when an emergency arises.
Important Note: The information provided in this course is to make you aware of the importance of First Aid and how to administer basic treatment; however, it does not make you a qualified First Aider.

Emergency First Aid – There may be a time when you have to deal with an emergency. There may have been an accident or an incident where a colleague or customer has fallen ill which requires urgent action. Within this module, you learn about the two surveys you need to complete when you attend and incident and what procedure you need to follow to ensure the wellbeing of the casualty.
