First Aid at Work FAQs

Who is the First Aid at Work course suitable for?

This course is suitable for workplaces and organisations requiring trained first aiders with broader knowledge and responsibilities. FGH Training delivers it for businesses, community organisations and other settings where team members may need to respond to a wide range of injuries, illnesses and medical emergencies.

Learners will gain practical first aid knowledge, hands-on experience, and the confidence to respond to a broad range of emergency situations. Through FGH Training, they will develop the skills needed to assess an incident, manage casualties effectively, and provide immediate care until further help is available.

The course covers topics including:

  • Assessing an incident
  • CPR and using an automated external defibrillator
  • Unresponsive casualties
  • Choking, bleeding and shock
  • Head, spinal and chest injuries
  • Fractures and other bone, muscle and joint injuries
  • Burns, scalds and eye injuries
  • Poisoning and anaphylaxis
  • Heart attacks, strokes, seizures, asthma and diabetes

The regulated syllabus and assessment requirements must be completed in full. However, our trainers can use relevant examples and scenarios to help learners understand how the skills apply within your working environment.

There is no single number that applies to every workplace. Your first aid needs assessment should consider employee numbers, shift patterns, workplace hazards, absences, lone working, site layout and access to emergency services.

The qualification is valid for three years. Learners must complete the appropriate requalification course before their certificate expires to remain qualified.
