Emergency First Aid at Work Training Course
(HSE Approved)
This HSE approved 1 day training course replaces the former ‘Appointed Person’ course and is suitable for employers who have identified a requirement for Emergency First Aider’s at Work in their First Aid Needs Assessment.
The focus of this course is on preventing situations from becoming worse and learning the vital life saving skills that a trained Emergency First Aider can use until help arrives.
Our instructor’s deliver dynamic courses that relate the subjects being taught to real life situations, which makes our training more applicable to your first aider’s.
Because of the wide spread availability of this course, it has also become a popular option for anyone requiring basic first aid training for variety situations outside the workplace.
Assessment and Certification
Students are continuously assessed throughout the day.
Emergency First Aid at Work certificates are valid for three years and First on Scene Training will send an automatic reminder to both the customer and Emergency First Aider three months prior to the expiry date of the certificate. Certificates can be renewed by attending a 1 day Emergency First Aid at Work training course.
The HSE recommend that all Emergency First Aiders at work attend a 3 hour First Aid Refresher course annually, to ensure that they are up to date with procedures and to reduce the level of “first aid skill fade”.
