Liverpool First Aid Courses

We strive to ensure that we offer the best first-aid training solutions to companies and individuals in and around Liverpool.

All of our courses are managed by instructors with years of experience and advanced knowledge. We work to ensure that we only recruit the best instructors who will always be able to deliver the right level of support. Our trainers have a minimum of five years of training experience to ensure that they reach the right quality standards.

As mentioned, our courses are also suitable for anyone and everyone who wants to acquire first aid skills in Liverpool. With our training solutions, you will be qualified to respond to incidents for three years before further training is required. 

We also aim to provide a flexible solution. While you can attend a first aid training course at one of our centres in Liverpool, we are also equipped to provide an in-house solution. With this option, we can provide training around your individual work schedule and ensure that team members receive training without any disruption to your work model.

Unlike other companies, we take a variety of different learning approaches, incorporating various styles of learning into our courses. In doing so, we can ensure that our courses remain accessible, easy to follow and provide a short learning curve.

Companies with team members who have first aid qualifications can advertise this on their website, highlighting a commitment to team safety. First aid courses will also empower employees and individuals to respond appropriately in different situations, offering the support that people need. This can also help to build a more trusting and positive office culture.

The entry requirements for first aid courses can vary depending on the type of course being taken. Generally speaking, you should be a minimum age of 16 years old. Participants should also have a reasonable level of physical fitness and be able to understand clear instructions in English.

The legal requirement for a first aider in the workplace depends on the size and nature of the business. For small businesses with fewer than five employees, there is no legal requirement to have a qualified first aider. However, employers are expected to assess risks and take appropriate measures to ensure the wellbeing of their workers.

If your business has more than five employees, then you must appoint at least one qualified first aider in accordance with the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981. This means that they must hold a valid certificate of competence from an accredited training provider. The number of qualified first aiders may need to be increased depending on the size of the workplace, any hazards present, and the number of workers.

It is also important to ensure that your first aider is competent and confident in providing emergency aid in the workplace. This means ensuring that their qualification is kept up to date by attending refresher courses regularly.

Ultimately, it is up to employers to assess the risks in their workplace and decide on the best way to protect their staff.

A First Aid at Work course covers a range of topics that are important for the workplace. This includes:
