Appointed
Person
The
content of this course has been reduced to: 'call
999, - issue a first aid kit, - record the events'. No
first aid is included in this course = it does not designate a person as a
First Aider.
We do not recommend nor train this ultra-basic course, as we feel it is too
low a level for any workplace.
We
are pleased to be working in conjunction with
of Denbigh
Quality
providers of Training Courses for All Businesses, Streetworks and the
Construction Industry.
