Rescuing a Patient

First Aid Training Course in Lincoln provided by Acorn Medical Services

In October 2013, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE in England, Scotland and Wales) ceased its role in the approval of first aid training organisations for First aid at Work.

​

For employers to comply with their legal duties under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, they need to choose appropriate and adequate training to meet workplace needs, and use due diligence when choosing a first aid provider.

 

You can read the HSE's guidance on selecting a first aid provider by clicking here.

​​

Our entry level Emergency First Aid at Work course is only £70 per person, with discounted rates available for  commercial clients & group bookings. 

​

The course content includes:​​

  • Roles & Responsibilities of the First Aider (including Health & Safety regulations)

  • Assessing an Emergency Situation & Prioritising Action

  • Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)

  • Unresponsive Casualty (Breathing)

  • Using a Defibrillator

  • Choking (Adult, Child & Baby)

  • Seizures

  • Infection Prevention & Control

  • Bleeding

  • Shock

  • Dealing with Burns

​

This course won't make you a heart surgeon in one easy lesson, but it will give you the skills to be able to help someone during a medical emergency with complete confidence.

Other courses we deliver include the 3-day First Aid at Work, where additional skills are built on the above course, Manual Handling, Paediatric First Aid, Wilderness First Aid & Mental Health First Aid.

Just so you know, we can only take over 16's on certificated courses at the moment. Oh, and don't be put off by the myth that you might be sued for rendering First Aid to someone. Since the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, there has not been a single case before the British courts where there was a prosecution for rendering First Aid, even if the outcome wasn't good.​​​
