Why Take a First Aid Course in Edinburgh?

Emergencies can occur in any setting — whether at work, at home, or during everyday activities. Having the right first aid knowledge can make all the difference. By completing an accredited first aid course in Edinburgh, you will gain the confidence and practical skills to act swiftly and effectively in urgent situations, while also meeting the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.

Whether you need Emergency First Aid at Work, the full First Aid at Work qualification, or more specialised courses like Paediatric First Aid or Mental Health First Aid, Hurak offers comprehensive training with recognised certification. All courses are delivered by qualified trainers, and your certificate will remain valid for three years.

Each course is hands-on, ensuring that you leave with practical skills that can be applied confidently during real-life emergencies.

The type of first aid training you require depends on the risks in your workplace and the number of staff. In Edinburgh, Hurak offers accredited courses that cater to all levels, from essential one-day qualifications to in-depth, multi-day programmes. Below are some of the most popular options:

Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW)

This one-day course is perfect for smaller workplaces in Edinburgh, such as offices, retail stores, and schools. It covers basic first aid skills for common emergencies, ensuring that staff can react promptly in critical situations.
