Suitability
This accredited course does not fully replace the need for the full first aid qualification but has been designed to supplement those who are fully qualified. It has also been designed to reduce the need for FAW qualified personnel when the numbers of EFAW are increased. It would suit anyone in a work environment as well as those who simply wish to learn how to carry out Emergency First Aid.
Typical Interest Groups
Any employer, employee or the general public.
Qualification
In line with recommendations from the HSE, on completion of the course, delegates will receive an Emergency First Aid at work certificate which is valid for 3 years and updated through refresher courses annually.
