In-house First Aid at Work

“Need fully qualified first aiders at work? This blended learning 3 day course is for you”

The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to make arrangements to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work. This includes carrying out a risk assessment, appointing a suitable amount of first aiders and providing appropriate first aid training.

Learner Assessment

There are 2 methods used to assess the QA Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (RQF) qualification.

Practical assessment  - this is observed by the Trainer throughout the course, with the results of each key skill being recorded on the Practical Assessment Papers provided.
The Practical Assessment Papers are:

• Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Practical Assessment

• Unconscious Casualty Practical Assessment

• Wounds and Bleeding Practical Assessment

• Choking Practical Assessment

• Secondary Survey Practical Assessment

• Fractures Practical Assessment

Theory Assessment (Multiple Choice Question Paper)

There is one paper for each learner and learners should answer all the questions under ‘examination’ conditions.

These past few days have far exceeded my expectations for this type of training. I have undertaken many courses over the years and this one is the best by a mile!
