What Is the First Aid at Work Course?

In Annan, the First Aid at Work course is a three-day program designed for higher-risk environments, including manufacturing sites, construction projects, and industrial settings. The programme builds advanced knowledge in first aid, including the management of injuries like fractures and burns, as well as recognising and responding to illnesses. Learners also gain experience in carrying out thorough secondary assessments.

✅ On completion, participants are awarded a Level 3 HSE-approved certificate that remains valid for three years, confirming their ability to deal with serious workplace emergencies.

What Will You Learn on the Course?

The three-day First Aid at Work course in Annan is designed to take learners from core first aid skills to more advanced workplace scenarios. Early in the training, you will practise CPR, learn how to evaluate an incident, and understand the steps needed to protect yourself and others. The programme then progresses to more challenging topics such as managing burns, chest and spinal injuries, fractures, and recognising sudden illnesses. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to respond confidently to situations ranging from minor accidents to major emergencies.

During the course, you will cover the following areas:

  • Carrying out primary and secondary casualty assessments, along with overall scene management
  • Providing CPR, placing casualties in the recovery position, and using an AED
  • Controlling bleeding, responding to choking, and managing shock
  • Delivering first aid for burns, fractures, chest trauma, and head injuries
  • Recognising and responding to common medical conditions, including asthma, diabetes, seizures, strokes, and heart attacks
  • Identifying and treating incidents of poisoning, severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), and injuries to the eyes
  • Applying practical, workplace-specific techniques that build on core first aid knowledge

On completion of this HSE-recognised Level 3 programme, you will be fully prepared to respond with confidence in higher-risk workplace settings where serious accidents or medical emergencies may occur.

I have attended many first aid courses over the past 15 years and I can say this one has been the best. The delivery was not only knowledgeable (both from a theoretical and practical perspectives) but also it was done in such agile way that it made the days go by incredibly quickly. The trainers kept our engagement at all times and are clearly passionate not only about the subject but about facilitating the learning process. Thank you!
