Intended audience: This 1st Aid Course is designed for all staff who might have to provide first aid to other staff, patients or visitors.

Duration: 1 hour

About this course: At the end of this on-line 1st Aid course you will have the  knowledge you need to recognise common clinical emergencies and know how to manage them until help arrives.

There is no face-to-face component to this course and it does not cover basic life support (CPR) or management of choking which can be found in the mandatory WDHB Basic Life Support Module.

Each module in the course takes about 2-3 minutes. There is a mandatory quiz at the end of the course;  you need to achieve 80% in the quiz to receive your certificate.

If you would like further theoretical/practical knowledge and skills in the recognition of clinical emergencies, we recommend you enrol in a workplace first aid course through St John or the Red Cross. Enrolment in external training should be discussed  with your manager as you might be required to self-fund.
