Where a first aid needs assessment identifies the necessity for a first aider in the workplace, this one-day Level 3 qualification meets the requirements of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1982.

 

This qualification is also suitable for people with responsibility for the provision of first aid in other settings such as voluntary and community groups. Runs from 9am to 5pm.

 

You will gain the knowledge and practical competence required to deal with a wide range of workplace first aid situations.

 

This great value, engaging and high-quality 1 Day Emergency First Aid at Work qualification will be delivered by Andy Sharman, an experienced paramedic and passionate educator with over 26 years of knowledge working clinically and strategically within the NHS.

 

Light Refreshments (tea, coffee and biscuits) will be provided throughout the day, but you will need to bring your own lunch as this is not provided.
