Foley & Baugh provide First Aid Refresher Courses in Norfolk for people approaching the renewal of their First Aid at Work qualification.
Workplace first aiders need to be ready to respond when an accident or medical emergency occurs. But first aid skills can become less familiar with the passage of time, particularly when a first aider rarely has to use them in practice. Keeping qualifications current and refreshing practical knowledge are therefore important parts of maintaining effective workplace first aid arrangements.
Our two-day first aid refresher course is designed to revisit essential knowledge and practical skills while bringing delegates up to date with current approaches to first aid response. The course provides an opportunity for experienced workplace first aiders to reinforce their existing knowledge rather than starting from scratch. Delegates work through a range of important first aid subjects, including incident management, while revisiting the skills needed to respond appropriately to workplace injuries and medical emergencies.
Successful completion of the first aid refresher course enables participants to renew their First Aid at Work qualification for a further three years. Delegates receive a certificate confirming their renewed qualification, helping employers maintain appropriate first aid provision and giving trained first aiders the confidence that their knowledge remains current.
But regular first aid refresher training is about more than simply keeping a certificate valid. In an emergency, a first aider may need to make decisions quickly and remain calm under pressure. Revisiting key procedures and techniques helps ensure that those skills remain familiar and that first aiders feel prepared to act when required. Employers also have responsibilities under the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 to make suitable first aid arrangements for their workplaces. The appropriate level of provision depends on the circumstances and risks associated with each workplace, but maintaining suitably trained personnel is an important consideration.
Our First Aid Refresher Course costs £145 + VAT for the two-day programme. Foley & Baugh deliver first aid training at venues convenient for businesses across the county and wider East Anglia.
If members of your workplace first aid team are approaching the end of their current First Aid at Work qualification, now is a good time to consider their renewal arrangements. Foley & Baugh’s First Aid Refresher Course in Norfolk provides a practical opportunity to update essential skills, renew qualifications and help keep your workplace prepared for the unexpected.
