Course description
Emergency Response Team Training
This 5 day programme is aimed at First Aiders, identified by their company’s risk and needs assessment, as requiring additional skills to enable them to provide an advanced level of First Aid action and treatment for a medical emergency, above that provided by the HSE First Aid at Work qualification.
This course provides the basic underpinning knowledge and treatment, using additional skills, to allow participants to undertake this role safely and with confidence. The course is assessed using Medical and Trauma scenarios focused on delegate’s industry areas. It uses casualty simulation techniques to enhance the learning experience.
As with other First Aid qualifications a yearly refresher is recommended to offset “skill-fade” in addition to the 3 yearly requalification course.
