FIRST AID TRAINING
Introduction
EFAW: 1 Day | FAW: 3 Days | FAW Refresher: 2 Days
At PCR Global we believe it is both every person’s right and responsibility to have an awareness of first aid, and of what to do in the event of a first aid emergency. For this reason we treat first aid training with the utmost importance and assure our courses to the highest possible quality standards. Student participation and practical activities are at the core of each learning outcome.
All PCR First Aid courses are delivered using the latest equipment, delivered by experienced tutors, including Andrew Protheroe, who holds vast experience operating in high risk environments where first aid skills were often called upon. Wherever possible courses are tailored to the work environments of the participants, ensuring that scenarios they are likely to encounter are given precedent in practical sessions, better preparing students for real-world incidents.
The same ethos is applied to every single first aid course PCR Global deliver; our one day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW), 3 day First Aid at Work (FAW) and First Aid at Work Refreshers (FAWR)
