Course Description
Introduction
This half-day Emergency First Aid qualification is the less comprehensive of the two main (non-paediatric) first aid qualifications routinely used in schools. This qualification is for low-risk environments or for personnel assigned to support fully qualified first aiders (those who have completed the 3-day First Aid at Work qualification). The qualification meets the Emergency First Aid standard required by the Health & Safety Executive – The regulatory body for first aid within the UK.
Re-qualification of First Aid at Work and Emergency First Aid at Work is mandatory after a period of three years. However, the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) "strongly recommends that first-aiders undertake annual refresher training during any three-year FAW/EFAW certification period. Although not mandatory, this will help qualified first aiders maintain their basic skills and keep up-to-date with any changes to first aid procedures". This three-hour annual refresher course has been designed to meet this HSE recommendation and will help first aiders maintain their skills and knowledge whilst also keeping up-to-date with any changes to protocols.
