The course addresses the major accidents and illnesses that can occur in the typical workplace. These include when someone has stopped breathing, head and spinal injuries and use of the recovery position.

The qualification is accredited by the Highfield Awarding Body of Compliance (HABC). This is important as it maintains that the training is Ofqual regulated and Nationally Accredited (QCF).
Candidates are qualified at the conclusion of the training, providing they have passed both theoretical and practical assessments. This means the course can be booked up last minute if the qualification is urgently required.
Certificates typically take around 7 days to arrive back from the awarding body, with a further 3 days required to post to candidates. If urgent we can arrange cover letters to confirm the qualification is in place.
Certificates are valid for a period of three years from the date of passing. Once expired candidates refresh their skills by completing the same course. This helps addresses any changes to guidelines and enables further practice in the event of an emergency.
In house courses can be tweaked to meet the individual requirements of the business. recent examples of this include covering poisonings in detail at a homeless centre and covering the practical implications of an electrocution at a server centre. These are only a couple of examples of how courses can be tailored to meet the needs of a business.
