This program will provide you with the
knowledge and skills required to administer
first aid to a casualty who has sustained an
injury or illness, until the arrival of
professional medical help. Our experienced
trainers take a professional approach that
not only delivers the necessary knowledge
and skills to confidently administer first
aid, but the courses are also structured in
a friendly, fun and enjoyable learning
environment.
Course Information
Whilst the theory and concepts of First Aid
are covered in the course, the Apply First
Aid One Day Course focuses on the various
practical skills needed to administer first
aid. A workbook and manual is given to the
client to complete prior to attending the
course. This allows the client to study the
theory at their own pace. Our One Day Apply
First Aid course uses a very “hands on”
approach where theory is learnt while
performing scenarios relevant to the
client’s industry. We use a theatrical
approach to the role plays to make them
appear very realistic. Mix and match games,
group activities, video and PowerPoint
presentations makes this course interactive
and a very enjoyable learning experience.
