A one-day, FAIB-accredited course that prepares a workplace first aider to give emergency first aid, delivered in-company at your premises.
Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a one-day course that prepares a workplace first aider to give emergency first aid to someone who is injured or becomes ill at work. KeyOstas delivers it in-company, and it is accredited by the First Aid Industry Body (FAIB) with a certificate valid for three years.
Your first-aid needs assessment shows how many first aiders you need, and at what level.
By the end of the day, every delegate will be able to do the following.
Assess an emergency, take the appropriate action and inform the emergency services.
Carry out artificial ventilations and chest compressions, and use a defibrillator.
Use the recovery position, and clear an obstructed airway.
Carry out primary and secondary assessment and history taking.
Control severe bleeding, and recognise and treat shock.
Recognise and deal with burns and scalds.
Recognise and respond to seizures and choking.
Know what a first aid kit should contain and how to report an accident.
One hands-on day of emergency first aid, assessed by practical demonstration.
