“The Emergency First Aid at Work course provided enough basic First Aid tools in the one-day session for me to gain knowledge and confidence, as well as refreshing my skills. The trainer was on hand to answer questions and provide guidance when practicing the skills and was engaging. The group received up to date information from the enthusiastic and experienced First Aider, who was able to illustrate how the skills could be used at work and other emergency situations.”
Andrea Papkiewicz, Projects and Performance Officer, Audit and Control, Broxtowe Borough Council.
