Our Standard First Aid at Work course provides comprehensive training in essential life-saving techniques, ensuring your team is prepared to handle a wide range of workplace emergencies. From the critical first moments of incident response through to casualty handover, we equip your staff with the knowledge and practical skills they need to act swiftly and effectively when every second counts.

The course begins with fundamental emergency response protocols, teaching participants how to safely assess and manage an incident scene while protecting both themselves and others. We then move into hands-on training for crucial life-saving interventions, including CPR and AED usage, which form the cornerstone of emergency response. Our practical sessions ensure participants develop muscle memory and confidence in these vital skills.

Throughout the training, we cover a comprehensive range of workplace injuries and conditions, from minor incidents to major emergencies. Participants learn proper techniques for managing bleeding and wounds, treating burns and scalds, and handling unconscious casualties. Every skill is taught with clear, step-by-step instruction and supported by practical exercises that reinforce learning. By the end of the course, your team will have the skills and confidence to respond effectively to workplace medical emergencies.

This comprehensive course covers essential life-saving techniques. Participants will learn:

Mental Health First Aid

Our Mental Health First Aid training is designed to transform workplaces into environments where mental health is understood, supported, and prioritively managed. This comprehensive programme equips participants with the skills to recognise and respond to mental health challenges, breaking down stigmas and creating an atmosphere where colleagues feel safe seeking support.

The course begins by building a foundation of understanding about mental health conditions and their workplace impact. Participants learn to identify early warning signs and subtle changes in behaviour that might indicate a colleague is struggling. This early recognition is crucial, as it enables intervention before issues escalate and potentially affect both the individual's wellbeing and workplace safety.

We place special emphasis on developing practical communication skills that enable participants to approach sensitive conversations with confidence and empathy. Through role-play scenarios and guided discussions, delegates learn how to listen effectively, ask appropriate questions, and provide support without overstepping professional boundaries. The course also covers the development of workplace support frameworks, ensuring that mental health first aid becomes an integral part of your organisation's health and safety culture.

All of this is delivered in a supportive, confidential environment where participants can explore these important topics while developing their own emotional resilience. By the end of the training, your mental health first aiders will be equipped to act as vital support points within your organisation, helping to create a workplace where mental health is given the same priority as physical wellbeing.

Our specialised Mental Health First Aid training helps create a more supportive workplace environment. The programme covers:

  • Recognition of early warning signs and symptoms of mental health challenges

  • Understanding of various mental health conditions and their impact in the workplace

  • Development of appropriate response strategies for different situations

  • Essential communication techniques for supporting colleagues

  • Confidence-building exercises for mental health support
