Field Skills Presents: Exciting Emergency First Aid at Work

INTERNATIONAL expedition team, Field Skills, are running a refreshing Emergency First Aid at Work course, at Eden Lodge on Monday 1 March.

The one-day course teaches crucial first aid essentials such as CPR and Accident Procedures, all geared towards First Aid and safety in the workplace.

The course is prepared in line with Health and Safety Law, which states that every organisation in the UK has responsibilities with regards to first aid provision. The courses are always fun and interactive, but maintain excellent detail of first aid, for anyone wanting to gain skills for inside or outside of work.

Izzy Jones, who will be running the course, explains that Field Skills' First Aid Courses are completely different to anything you may have experienced before. She said: "We always use hands-on practical training and scenarios, not hours sat in front of a PowerPoint presentation.

"These scenarios and our experience of working in a huge range of situations mean we always look at how to apply the principles to your situation - be that in an office, outdoors in the UK or the remote Amazonian rainforest!"

Core to all of Field Skills' courses is use of practical scenarios to give an extensive practical experience of all treatments discussed.

One person who attended Field Skills' first aid course was recently called upon to put their skills to the test. They described: "I had to use my new-found first aid skills after chancing across a semi-conscious older gentleman in the street, who had collapsed and hit his head.

It all came very naturally, and I'll put that down to the way Field Skills' course repeatedly practiced and drove home the essentials."

Field Skills have offices in Borneo as well as one in the UK. They work with a variety of clients from UK businesses looking for fun, enjoyable first aid training.

Some existing clients include: Universities that support safe fieldwork overseas, holiday companies looking for something different and TV crews looking to get into tricky spots.

What is so unique about Field Skills is the insatiable passion and enthusiastic drive to make First Aid training and Expeditions fun and different to the norm.

You'll need to act quickly to secure your place on the Emergency First Aid at Work Course, which is on Monday 1 March, 0930 - 1630 at Eden Lodge, Bardsea.
