Course Content

  • The role and responsibilities of an emergency first aider
  • Assessing an incident and prioritising action (primary survey)
  • Recognising cardiac arrest (unresponsive and abnormal breathing)
  • Calling 999 early and following call-handler instructions
  • Delivering high-quality CPR (compressions and rescue breaths)
  • Safe and confident use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
  • Managing an unresponsive casualty (including recovery position)
  • Choking (adult)
  • Severe bleeding and shock
  • Minor injuries (cuts, burns, etc.)
  • Learners are trained to recognise cardiac arrest quickly and act without delay.

    If a casualty is unresponsive and not breathing normally, learners are taught to call 999 immediately, start chest compressions at a rate of 100–120 per minute, and use an AED as soon as one is available.

    Training includes both CPR with rescue breaths (30:2) and guidance on compression-only CPR where appropriate.

Minimum Requirement

Entry requirements: We recommend learners are a minimum of 14 years of age. However, it is also recommended that centres/employers undertake an initial assessment to ensure that learners, whatever their age, are physically capable of completing the practical assessment (please see reasonable adjustments and special considerations section for learners if required).
It is also advised that learners have a minimum of Level 1 in English to enable them to complete the assessment.
