It is estimated that over 600,000 of us will suffer a non-fatal accident at work every year. The competent and timely administration of first aid can make a huge difference for both the injured employee and the business.

The course

Highfield’s Emergency First Aid e-learning course gives learners the opportunity to undertake online first-aid training and still go on to achieve the level 3 award in emergency first aid (RQF).

The course can replace 2 hours of the 1-day emergency first aid at work (RQF) course or emergency first aid at work at SCQF level 6 course that are run through recognised Highfield Qualifications centres. This e-learning also covers other practical areas of the course, such as CPR, so is great for reinforcing competency and refresher training.

Areas covered

• Understanding the role and responsibilities of a first-aider
• Assessing an incident
• Managing an unresponsive casualty
• Recognising and assisting a choke casualty
• Managing a casualty – external bleeding and shock
• Managing a casualty – minor injury

Who is it aimed at?

The course is ideal for any employee or manager who wishes to become an emergency first-aider in the workplace.
