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. First off, it's taught by APM's 2 fantastic instructors - Steven Bruce and Malcolm Parnell. Unlike other online courses, this one is LIVE and SUPERVISED. We also send you the equipment you need in order to meet all the goals of clinic first aid - that means you get better training! (and a "Learning with Others" CPD certificate). Class size is limited to 30, so that you get optimum supervision, all of which is achieved through the live video link.
