First Aid Training
The world of First Aid is vast and sometimes a little confusing. We at FabTraining work hard to keep up to date with the ever changing legislation surrounding First Aid in the Workplace the roles and responsibilities of all parties involved.
One of the first things that is needed is to determine which first aid course is appropriate for the people needing to attend. Some questions to ask would be:
Is the environment Low or High risk?
Is the first aid required predominantly for Adults or Children?
What is an adequate level of training needed for the setting?
How many First Aiders are needed?
The answers to these questions hopefully will make deciding which first aid course is the right one but our team are always on hand to offer their expert assistance!
Emergency First Aid at Work
Did you know that there are over 6 million working days lost annually due to non-fatal workplace injuries? Emergency first aid at work (EFAW) is a popular 1-day training course that is designed to provide first aiders with the knowledge and skills they need to respond effectively to emergency situations in the workplace, especially in a lower risk environment, and provide invaluable assistance to the patient.
First Aid at Work
Did you know that an estimated 555,000 workers in Britain sustained an injury at work in 2017/2018? The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers by law must ensure that employees get immediate help if taken ill or injured at work. This applies to every workplace and the self-employed. The training courses in this section meet these minimum requirements set by the HSE regarding first aid provision for your workplace whether it be high-risk, low-risk or a specialised environment.
Paediatric First Aid
Do you work with children either in your own home of within a childcare setting? Are you a carer who wants the skills and confidence to deal with a medical emergency involving an infant or child? Does your setting require you or your team to meet the criteria of regulatory authorities such as OFSTED and EYFS surrounding your first aid provision? We have a range of Paediatric First Aid courses that meet these requirements and help care givers provide effective first aid to children.
Basic Life Support
Are you a Healthcare professional or work in an environment where you may encounter a life-threatening situation such as a healthcare facility or an area of public safety? Are you required to undertake a mandatory annual essential skills update in order to maintain quality standards in your area of work? Our range of Basic Life Support courses revolve around administering high-quality and effective CPR for adults, children and infants as well as looking at other life support skills.
Activity First Aid
Outdoor and Activity first aid courses often focus on teaching participants how to assess and manage common injuries and illnesses that can occur in the wilderness, such as cuts, burns, insect bites, hypothermia, and dehydration. We look at how to improvise with limited resources, make quick decisions in challenging situations, and provide effective care until professional help arrives.
