What This Course Covers

It is now a requirement of Health & Safety law that all employers provide first aid cover if working with infants and young children. The most appropriate course will be determined through your own risk assessment of your working environment. 

This first aid course has been designed for people working with children and infants. It will be particularly relevant for teachers, child minders, crèche and playgroup assistants and anyone else who has a responsibility for children’s welfare.

The 2 Day Paediatric first aid syllabus covers a broad set of scenarios and skills and will give you the confidence to deal with emergency first aid situations. All of our courses are very practical and we use scenario training to reinforce learning. We also look at incidents that could occur when taking children on outings away from the work environment.

This first aid course will provide you with a nationally recognised Level 3 First Aid Award that will be valid for 3 years from the date you train.

Our 2 day course exceeds the requirements and criteria as detailed by the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Ofsted.

All of our instructors are highly trained and experienced with real life emergencies and they bring this knowledge to their courses.

If you are interested in this course but feel that it may be a little more in depth than required then you may be interested in our 1 day paediatric first aid course. If you have any doubt about the required qualification for your particular field either contact your governing body or give us a call.

HSE REQUIREMENTS

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is the government body that sets the overarching rules on first aid qualifications in the UK. Over the last 10 years things have changed dramatically in the first aid sector in regards to how first aid providers deliver first aid courses. Advised by institutes such as the General Medical Council and the Resuscitation Council techniques are constantly evolving and improving. We stay at the head of the game by constantly reviewing our practices and in house training whilst also drawing on our own extensive experience working in a broad range of extreme environments. Our staff have working experience in professions ranging from combat paramedics to mountain guides.

HSE Training Requirements
LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

As employers it is now commonplace to have first aid trained staff. This is to guarantee a safe working environment for both your staff and your clients.
Depending on your business you can have very different first aid requirements so we have various first aid courses to choose from.
As of 2013 the HSE made changes that primarily put an onus on the individual or employer to establish the most relevant first aid qualification for your particular environment and needs.
To establish the most relevant route for you or your business you should start with a risk assessment. This should highlight the most obvious areas of danger and from there the right course should be clear.
If you are unsure please get in touch and we will help point you in the right direction however we cannot provide legal advice and it will be up to you to make the final decision on which course you need.

OUR PROMISE

All of our first aid courses comply with the latest guidelines from the Resuscitation Council UK and the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) Guidance on First Aid 2016.
We are fully qualified to provide accredited and regulated first aid qualifications. Should you require Ofqual regulated certification then we process your certificate through the FAA (First Aid Awards).
We teach varied, engaging content that is tailored to be relevant to your specific requirements and group.
