Courses are one or two days in length. Day one gives you an Emergency Action certificate, whilst days one and two add up to an Emergency Course.
These courses are interactive, hands-on training of outstanding quality delivered through Immediate Temporary Care, an HSE approved provider.

Emergency Action
A one day course covering First Responder skills, a systems approach to injury assessment, CPR, and skills to deal with life threatening incidents when an experienced First Aider is not available. Syllabus covers the needs of the 'Appointed Person' in the workplace.

Emergency Course
Building on day one, day two puts these skills in real life contexts - in both urban and remote situations. Covers the needs of the outdoor national governing bodies for their instructor awards (suitable for ML, SPA, BCU, RYA, BOF, MIA, MIC, etc).

Note: we do not provide accommodation on this course but can recommend excellent places to stay locally.
