Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW)
This course is ideally suited to lower-risk workplaces where a risk assessment has identified the need for staff to possess appropriate first-aid skills and knowledge.
Our 6-hour course is presented either at your workplace or another location of your choosing. It is delivered under the guidance of our doctor, nurse, and paramedic trainers and uses the latest training techniques to maximise learner recall and confidence.
This course covers CPR and the use of an AED/Defib.
