What Is the Emergency First Aid at Work Course?

This Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) training in Merthyr Tydfil is a 1-day Level 3 workplace first aid course for anyone who may need to step in during an emergency. You’ll learn how to respond quickly, keep a casualty stable, and support them until professional medical help takes over.

As a fully HSE-compliant qualification, it’s recognised across a wide range of industries and works particularly well for small to medium-sized teams. During the day, you’ll build confidence in essential skills such as CPR and AED use, completing a primary survey, and managing common incidents including choking, bleeding, shock, and loss of responsiveness.

✅ Completing the course not only supports health and safety compliance but also helps you protect colleagues, visitors, and customers when every second counts.

Who Is the Course for in Merthyr Tydfil?

This Emergency First Aid at Work qualification is designed for employees who could be the first person to respond if someone becomes unwell or injured at work. It’s particularly suitable for roles involving public interaction or higher day-to-day risk, including retail, hospitality, education, and construction.

For workplaces in Merthyr Tydfil, the 1-day format is a practical option when you need a designated first aider without taking teams away from operations for several days. It enables employers to meet their first aid responsibilities while keeping disruption to a minimum.

By the end of the training, learners are able to act calmly and decisively, giving organisations reassurance that someone on site can take control and provide immediate care until emergency services arrive.

What Will You Learn on the Emergency First Aid at Work Course?

This course is practical and workplace-focused, helping you build confidence through demonstrations, hands-on activities, and realistic scenarios. You’ll learn how to stay calm under pressure and take the right action while waiting for emergency services.

During the day, you will cover:

  • How to perform CPR and use an AED correctly
  • How to assess an incident using a primary survey (DRABC)
  • How to respond to choking and other airway emergencies
