Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a workplace-focused First Aid Course designed to help learners develop the knowledge and practical skills needed to respond to common emergencies.
The training focuses on the initial response to an emergency. Learners can develop an understanding of how to assess a situation, respond appropriately to a casualty, provide immediate first aid and seek further assistance when required.
The course covers essential emergency first aid topics such as:
Casualty assessment
Unconscious casualties
CPR
Automated external defibrillator (AED) use
Choking
Severe bleeding
Shock
Minor injuries
Emergency procedures
EFAW is focused on providing appropriate first aid within the learner's level of training and competence. It does not replace professional medical treatment or emergency medical services.
Workplace first aid is an important part of preparing for situations where an employee, visitor or other person may become injured or unwell.
Training can help learners understand what action they can take during the early stages of an emergency while appropriate additional assistance is arranged.
A practical Emergency First Aid Course can provide useful skills for people who may need to respond to an emergency.
Develop practical knowledge relevant to common workplace first aid situations.
Learn how to approach an emergency systematically and respond within the limits of your training.
Develop practical knowledge of CPR and how an AED can be used during an emergency response.
Understand important first aid principles including casualty assessment, choking, bleeding and unconsciousness.
Practical learning can help learners feel more prepared to respond appropriately when an emergency occurs.
A First Aid Qualification can add a useful practical skill to your existing professional experience.
EFAW training can be relevant to employees, security professionals and people working in a range of workplace environments.
The course combines information with practical activities to help learners understand how first aid skills are applied.
The EFAW Course covers key areas of emergency first aid and casualty care.
Learn how to approach an emergency safely and assess the situation before providing appropriate assistance.

Develop knowledge of appropriate first aid responses for common minor injuries.

During the course, learners can develop practical confidence in areas such as:
Assessing an emergency
Checking a casualty
Performing CPR
Using an AED
Responding to choking
Managing bleeding
Using the recovery position
Responding to unconscious casualties
Following emergency procedures
Communicating important information
The objective is to help learners understand what to do, when to do it and when to seek additional assistance.
The Emergency First Aid at Work Course can be suitable for a variety of learners looking to develop practical workplace emergency response skills.
Employees who want to develop workplace first aid knowledge and practical emergency response skills.
Businesses looking to provide appropriate first aid training for members of their workforce.
Security personnel who may encounter accidents, injuries, medical emergencies or situations requiring immediate assistance.
People starting a new career who want to add a practical first aid skill to their professional development.
Professionals who want to strengthen their workplace safety knowledge and emergency response skills.
Anyone looking for practical emergency first aid training may consider an EFAW course where it meets their requirements.
The appropriate level of workplace first aid training should always be considered in relation to the needs of the organisation and the specific role.
Security professionals can work in environments where they may encounter accidents, injuries or unexpected emergencies.
This makes First Aid for Security Guards a useful complementary skill.
Security personnel may encounter situations involving:
Falls
Cuts and bleeding
Unconscious people
Choking
Injuries
Medical emergencies
Accidents
Crowded environments
Incidents requiring immediate assistance
EFAW training can help security professionals understand how to respond appropriately while additional assistance is arranged.
First aid training does not replace a security professional's main responsibilities.
Instead, it provides an additional practical skill that may be useful when dealing with an emergency.
A trained person should always act within their level of knowledge and competence and seek professional medical assistance when necessary.
The term general first aid training can describe many different courses. There is no single course that represents all general first aid training.
EFAW is specifically focused on emergency first aid in a workplace context.
