First Aid at Work (FAW) RefresherDepending on the type of injuries that might occur. See the difference between these courses below.
EFAW Refresher covers how to provide appropriate first aid for minor injuries (including small cuts, grazes, bruises, minor burns and scalds, small splinters)
FAW Refresher covers how to administer first aid to a casualty with injuries to bones, muscles and joints, including suspected spinal injuries, chest injuries, burns and scalds, eye injuries, sudden poisoning, anaphylactic shock, as well as how to recognise the presence of major illness (including heart attack, stroke, epilepsy, asthma, diabetes) and provide appropriate first aid.
If you are looking to become a qualified first aider, then you'll need to undertake practical training. Guidance on choosing a provider for this can be found online: www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/geis3.htm
Always refer to your workplace's first aid needs assessment to determine whether you require practical training alongside this online course.

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.
