Outdoor first aid 2 day course

This course extends the essential core skills of the 1 day course. It is ideally suited to those who work or play in the outdoors and may have to deal with first aid incidents when at a distance from emergency services.

  • The course will provide vital first aid essentials such as CPR and Accident Procedures and consider the practicalities of these protocols in the outdoors.
  • The course is a 16 hour outdoor course and therefore meets the requirements of NGB qualifications such as ML and SPA.
  • Our courses are certified and regulated by an HSE approved provider.
  • It is also certified by the QCA and appears on the NQF.
  • It extends the core skills of the one day course to look at major injuries such as broken bones and head injuries.
  • As with all our courses we will use our experience of working in remote environments to look at the practicalities of applying these core skills in the outdoors.

Course Content:
Accident Procedures: Essential life saving systems for assessing and treating unconscious casualties.
Resuscitation and choking: Applying the latest protocols to deal with non-breathing casualties.
Bleeding: We will look at dealing with major bleeds.
