Workplace First Aid
Can you help co-workers in an emergency ?
In the event of an accident or emergency in your office, would you know how to help your colleague while you wait for assistance or an ambulance? Does your workplace comply with the recommendations?
We offer two Level Three workplace first aid courses that meet QCA standards from which you receive an OFQual recognised certificate.
We aim to be as flexible as possible and our courses can be arranged to suit your workplace. We can come to you, or you are welcome to use our classroom as the base for your course (at no extra charge).
