First Aid Refresher
The first aid refresher training course is a short refresher course for learners who have qualified in either first aid at work (level three) and/or emergency first aid at work (level two), to ensure individuals remain qualified and up-to-date on current legislative guidelines.
The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require employers to identify the requirements for first aid within their workplaces. This includes the provision, where appropriate, of fully qualified first aiders, i.e. those who have successfully undertaken an QCF-approved first aid at work course.
