If so, Wayside Transport can help as we offer a variety of first aid courses all of which are HSE approved. You can read more about each of these course options below. Alternatively, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact our team today.
The Emergency First Aid at Work course is a one-day programme that has been designed to cover all regulatory requirements. It is an essential qualification for anyone looking to become the designated first aider in their place of employment. This course is the best choice for many candidates, so long as their risk assessment stipulates that only first-aid training that covers emergency protocols is required.
This particular first aid course is aimed at individuals looking to train as first aiders in environments that could be considered low-risk. These are usually smaller places of employment that don’t have a particularly large workforce or aren’t engaged in operations which would be considered dangerous.
If the attendee requires us to do so, we can also accredit the seven-hour Driver CPC training.
All attendees will cover workplace health and safety regulations and be taught the basic life-saving skills that are required to stabilise a patient until medical help arrives. This course covers many different areas, including:
• The Role of the First Aider
• How to Manage an Emergency
• Caring for a Casualty/ Effective Communication
• How to Manage Cases Involving Minor and Severe Bleeding
• Burns
• Caring for Casualties Who Are Unresponsive
• Resuscitation (CPR)
• Seizures in Adults
• Shock
• Choking (Adults)
• Defibrillator – Pad Placement/ Prompts/ How to Respond
