Workplace First Aid

We teach basic life support and first aid techniques that focus on preserving life and minimising serious injury by maintaining circulation, stemming blood flow and immobilising broken bones and soft tissue injuries. Besides saving lives, first-aid treatment is important in preventing further complications from injury and pain, and in promoting recovery.

Some workplaces have greater risks of injury and illness because of the sort of work they do.

We can provide in-house workplace first aid courses to train your staff as competent first responders to common emergency situations. Perfect for low risk workplaces, Community groups, Play Centre, ECE & Kōhanga Reo.

There is the opportunity to tailor the course modules, if required, to suit injuries and emergencies common to your workplace.

Your staff will enjoy the experience of working together in familiar surroundings to gain the skills that are relevant to their workspace.
