The Health and Safety (First Aid) regulations of 1981 require all employers to provide adequate and appropriate equipment, facilities and personnel to enable first aid to be given to employees if they become injured or ill at work. An Appointed Person is recommended by the Health and Safety Executive (H.S.E) as a minimum level of first aid cover in the workplace but is not a first aider. Where an employer’s assessment of first aid needs identifies that a first aider is not necessary, an employer needs to appoint a person to take charge of the first aid arrangements and to call the emergency services as necessary. This H.S.E. recognised course will equip delegates with basic first aid skills suitable for the workplace which will give them more confidence to fulfil their role as an Appointed Person. Each delegate will receive a first aid handbook to work from which can be kept for future reference and there are plenty of opportunities to practice new skills under supervision of the instructor during the course.
