Course in action
Engage and empower
Our in-house Learning Designers develop all of our courses to give you and your learners the most engaging training possible.
Module 1: Your Role in Workplace First Aid
This module introduces the topic of first aid in the workplace and addresses legal protections like the SARAH Act. It also provides guidance on key legislative responsibilities, including RIDDOR and accident records, and explains infection prevention and control measures.
Module 2: The Unconscious Casualty
This module outlines how to carry out the DR ABCDE primary survey checklist and what action may be needed if a casualty is unconscious. This includes recognising abnormal breathing, calling the emergency services effectively, performing CPR and using a defibrillator.
Module 3: The 'At Risk' Casualty
This module explains how to identify and prioritise immediate threats to life, including managing catastrophic bleeding, anaphylaxis, heart attacks, choking and seizures.
Module 4: The Struggling Casualty
This module focuses on assessing conscious casualties who are breathing but clearly unwell, detailing the signs and treatments for conditions such as asthma, diabetes, strokes, poisoning and spinal trauma.
Module 5: The Stable Casualty
This module explains how and when to perform a secondary survey on a casualty to gather essential medical information, using the SAMPLE framework and a full head-to-toe check where appropriate.
Module 6: The Minor Casualty
This module looks at identifying and treating everyday minor injuries, including burns using the SCALD method, minor bleeding, head and eye injuries, and how to treat sprains and strains using the RICE method.
The online assessment is taken on completion of the training material.
You will be asked 25 multiple choice questions with a pass mark of 80%.
The answers are marked automatically so you will instantly know whether you have passed. If you don't pass don't worry - you can take the test as many times as you need with no extra charge.
This course is suitable for people and businesses who wish to learn new first aid skills or refresh their existing first aid skills. No previous qualifications are needed to take this course as all the basic first aid techniques are covered in the training.
This course is best suited to low-hazard workplaces, such as offices, shops and restaurants, where a qualified first aider is not required according to the first aid needs assessment. It's considered best practice for all employees to be provided with first aid knowledge, particularly those who are in charge of first aid arrangements, and this course satisfies that requirement.
