First Aid in the Clinic – In Person Course

Academy of Physical Medicine Charles Parker Building (South), Midland Road, Higham Ferrers, United Kingdom

First Aid is an Essential A first aid emergency can occur at any time.  And it’s MORE LIKELY in your clinic, because you actively invite people with problems in to see you.  And there’s no guarantee that the problem is what they think it is! The public (and sadly, the press) need to be assured that you have the skills needed to deal with potentially life-threatening emergencies. That's why this hands-on course is for you. This is not like other first aid training. Firstly, it’s taught by APM’s 2 fantastic instructors – Steven Bruce and Malcolm Parnell. Further, it’s tailored to what you might encounter in your clinic. It’s enjoyable – great fun, in fact (because we make it that way!) Class size is limited, so that you get optimum supervision.  Cost – £144 inc VAT  Qualification  – HSE-recognised “Emergency First Aid at Work” certificate, valid for 3 years
