Aim

First Aid Action will provide you with the knowledge and skills required to administer first aid to a casualty who has sustained an injury or illness, until the arrival of professional medical help.

Course Description

All the theory requirements and concepts of a Apply First Aid course are covered in this 2 day course. Our Apply First Aid course uses a very "hands on” approach where theory is learnt while performing scenarios relevant to the client's industry. We use a theatrical approach to the role plays to make them appear very realistic. Mix'n match games, group activities, video and powerpoint presentations make our courses interactive and a very enjoyable learning experience.
