Attending our first aid training courses can provide you with many important skills. Most importantly, you will gain the knowledge and confidence to respond to an emergency. We deliver both the Emergency First Aid at work (EFAW) and the First Aid at Work (FAW) to business across the Southwest of England. Our First Aid at Work courses meet all criteria set out by the Health and Safety Executive and in accordance with the Resuscitation Council guidelines on treatment and have been developed to support employers to meet their requirements under The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.
Understanding how to assess the scene and manage a casualty’s condition accordingly by providing initial treatment, such as administering CPR or using a defibrillator are the basics of first aid. These lifesaving skills are the bread and butter of workplace first aid courses.
First Aid at Work courses teach how to recognise signs and symptoms of serious illness and injury, as well as how to recognise and treat conditions such as airway obstructions, choking, bleeding, shock and fractures. You will also learn how to deal with emergencies such as electric shocks, heart attacks, burns and poisoning. Furthermore, you’ll become familiar with the principles of infection control so that you can minimise the risk of harm to yourself and others.
EXCELLENT Based on 185 reviews Emily Tyack2024-12-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Toby puts emphasis in making sure you understand why certain things may be happening in first aid situations, rather than teaching you a text book. The result is a more comprehensive and practical education that feels more applicable to real world situations than any other course I've done. Acting out scenarios forms a large part of the course to solidify your theoretical learning. I really enjoyed these as both Toby and Pete are a: stella actors, and b: constructive teachers, so you're not worried about "getting it wrong". Would definitely recommend. Katie2024-12-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed Outdoor First Aid course, very practical and hands on. Everything was explained clearly and with no PowerPoint meant that things were so much easier to understand because they were broken down and explained thoroughly. My favourite part was the scenarios. The course was really interesting, best first aid course I’ve done. Guy Sturtivant2024-11-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great 2 day first aid for outdoors course led by Toby. Small group, loads of practical ideas about identifying problems and the best course of action to help a patient with lots of practice sessions along the way on a live 'casualty'! Definitely updated my practice and added to my confidence if ever I'm involved in supporting victims. Thomas Webster2024-11-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Toby was extremely experienced and knowledgeable. I've always found it hard to take on and retain knowledge around First Aid but found the way that Toby delivered it easy to understand and remember. I found the practical scenarios really useful as well as the reviews of each scenario that followed. I felt that my questions were answered really well which helped my understanding. I would definitely recommend!!! mr cez2024-11-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good training provider! sally carr2024-11-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent trainer in Toby would highly recommend, we were quite a large group of staff who all work together on a daily basis so a little unruly (in a good way) but he really was fantastic at making a good job of us all passing and enjoying it Peter Cook2024-10-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This must be the 3rd or 4th outdoor first aid course that I have done. The 1st with Optimal First Aid. Will not be using another provider form now on. Great course. Toby was great, professional, delivered well, had the experience to back up his teachings and really focused on the things that would really help when dealing with a real life situation. The props and hands on assessments really helped in terms of it being a real situation that you had to deal with. Would recommend to anyone. George Surtees2024-10-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did the 2 Day Outdoor First Aid with optimal. The focus on practical delivery whilst also having classroom and discussion based learning is a great way to deliver the course and gives confidence to learners, no matter previous experience. I had a great couple of days and would highly recommend to anyone thinking of doing a first aid course through them. James Wheeler2024-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great 2 day course from Toby and his team. The use of actors and simulations, for first aid scenarios to deal with as a first responder really do help, as you are learning practical skills and practicing them until you feel comfortable you could carry them out in the outdoor environment. Very knowledgeable and experienced. Would recommend. Paul Rendell2024-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great training course and lots of fun and you learn more when it is fun. 2nd course I have been on and would go on another.
