Why this training matters
First aid skills fade quickly if they are not refreshed. This keeps knowledge current between formal qualifications.
Full First Aid Refresher keeps first aiders' knowledge current between courses. It covers assessing a scene and a casualty safely, the recovery position, CPR and using a defibrillator, and bleeding, burns, shock and choking. It also covers when and how to call for help, so first aiders stay ready to act.
