FIRST AID IN THE CLINIC

4th December 2021, Higham Ferrers (NN10 8DN)

 

First Aid is an Essential

Do you know what to do?  Are you confident?  Would your skills stand up in court?

Make no mistake – a first aid emergency can occur at any time.  

First aid is easily forgotten because you don’t get many chances to practise it.  And the last thing you need is to be panicking when what’s required is urgent action.

That’s why this course is for you.  

Brilliantly taught by experienced instructors, they demystify first aid and make sure you remember your training throughout your 3 year qualification.

Most students tell us this is definitely the best first aid course they’ve ever attended!

Highly practical, just a little bit scary (!) and huge, huge fun, it’s unlike any other first aid course you’ve attended.

The course fee (until the end of October) is just £108 (including VAT)
After that date, it goes up to £144

The Instructors
First off, there are TWO instructors – two voices, double the humour.  That makes the training much more enjoyable.One’s a former marine, now an osteopath, the other’s a former paramedic. So they know their stuff!Neither of them likes to teach “from the book” – all the topics are put into context, explained clearly.  First aid “myths” are exposed and cold-bloodedly slaughtered (the marine does that bit).

What's Covered?
The standard one-day syllabus covers CPR, unconsciousness, choking, bleeding, shock and minor injuries (yes, even “small splinters”!).This course goes way beyond that.  Our philosophy is that you need to handle whatever crops up next.Here’s what we teach in addition to the standard, syllabus taught by other providers:– Anaphylaxis – Diabetes – Stroke – Heart attack – Epilepsy – Burns and scalds – Spinal injuries – Pneumothorax
