What our clients say…

FIRST AID FOR EDUCATIONAL VISITS

Everyone loves going on school trips they are educational and enjoyable for both adults and children.

OEAP National Guidance state that a basic level of first aid support should be available at all times. This will require that one or more of the staff leading the activity:

• Has a working knowledge of simple first aid and is competent to use the first aid materials carried with the group;

• Knows how to access, and is able to access, qualified first aid support.

This 3+ hour course may be appropriate for staff who lead or accompany educational visits were a risk assessment deems a fully qualified first aider is not needed. It is also suitable for staff who may need to deputise in the absence of the main first aider back at school.

This course takes place on the school site, at a time to suit (eg 9.15 - 12.30).
