About the event
This is a one day in-person accredited First Aid course for MU members.
Participants will learn:
- The role of a first aider
- How to assess an incident
- How to manage an unresponsive casualty who is breathing normally or who is not breathing normally
- How to manage a casualty who is wounded and bleeding, in shock, choking or with a minor injury
Further details
A First Aid manual will be provided.
Participants should be able to kneel on the floor and be free from any ailments, including sprains and aches or any other condition that will prevent them from being able to satisfactorily perform the practical activities, such as CPR and recovery position. If a participant can’t demonstrate the practical activities the Awarding Body will not be able to issue a certificate.
It is advisable to wear comfortable clothing and we kindly request that participants do not wear lipstick as this can stain the training mannequins.
Participants are required to:
- Arrive at 9:50am for registration (arrive promptly as you may be refused admission due to lateness)
- Bring an original, in-date form of photo ID for registration (this must match the name on your booking and is required for your certificate)
Please note that lunch is not provided.
