Course Overview

This is one probably our most popular First Aid course. Interactive scenarios with an acting/reacting casualty and practical exercises help candidates to learn basic life support skills and to improve their confidence in dealing with an emergency. The course content can be adapted to suit the needs of your organisation. See bespoke training
